One big advantage of pandoc is that it supports {align} and {gather}.
Pandoc and latex2mathml.py supports different subsets of latex. For example, latex2mathml.py does not support \gsime, but pandoc does.
The pandoc list of supported symbols is here [1] and it appears to be bigger (~2800 symbols) than the one in latex2mathml.py (~100 symbols), although it does not support some stuff like \underleftrightarrow that latex2mathml does.
Actually it appears [1] is written by yourself, and that version is 8 years old, so if you know where a newer version is I can go file a PR to them to support newer stuff like \underleftrightarrow.

In my personal experience, `pandoc` is more reliable than `latexml`, e.g. the current support for the latter in docutils does not automatically include amsfonts which prevents things like mathbb from working. In `pandoc` it Just Works.
