Books and newspapers implement full justification in a far more elegent fashion than the K2 does.
Also, the main - in fact only- reason for full justification is to allow columnar text on pages. Put three or four or five columns on a page and the text needs to be fully justified.
No such requirement for a one-column format such as the Kindle.
This is a matter of preference, but the awkward word spacing of forced justification where not needed, and is avoidable, is irksome to me.
So, Amazon expends the effort to allow landscape mode - a dubious benefit - yet does not bother to turn back on justification. Must be a reason....
