Incredible piece of work. Thank you for dealing with the PDF spec(?) so I don’t have to.

That is mostly done by the MuPDF library, which SumatraPDF provides a nice interface for (along with supporting many other formats).

I think the difficulty of PDFs is not so much the spec, but the many many non-spec-compliant PDF files out there that need workarounds.
