Unfortunally none of these is yet possible with any eInk device.

Today I also rather learn with paper than with eInk. But in future this could change if the devices improve.

@BlackVoid and others the article is about why eInk devices are supposed to doomed in the future. You cannot compare this to details they can or cant do right now.
