Just to add some data points:
The current versions of nicematrix states that it works with all three
engines, xelatex, lualatex, and pdflatex.
Todonotes also works with lualatex (and for quite some years).
At least in the newest version of ocgx the documentation states that
ocgx works with pdflatax and lualatex - but as ocgx is an extension to
ocg-p and ocg-p only works with pdflatex (and xelatex), effectively
only pdflatex is supported.
More general: Out there are quite some package that support only one
of the current engines xelatex, lualatex, or pdflatex. My gut feeling
is, that the majority works with any engine and more and more packages
tend to support the more modern engines xelatex and lualatex, while
dropping support for pdflatex.
Therefore, independently of any defaults set by Org, there will be
situation in which users have to explicitly configure a different
engine.
