not from where I'm standing:

a TIFF-F multipage image is a TIFF-F.
a PDF is 1.3, 1.4, 1.5,...
Acrobat redefined what bloatware means,
non Adobe readers are not available across all platforms, same goes for
non-Adobe pdf writers, in my experience, non Adobe writers make bloated
PDFs
have seen many lusers infected with PDF/Acrobat vulnerabilities
and, I don't find PDFs much good on a hand held
