Uh, that is not quite accurate.
Mobi format does in fact allow end-user font control. I'm doing it right now on my pocketbook 360. I can do it if I dig up my Hanlin V3 with OpenInkpot. I can do it if I choose to fire up Mobipocket on my PC.

Font choice is a function of the *reader app* not the ebook format.
Some apps allow it, other's don't.

What Mobi doesn't allow, that ePub does, is for the publisher to optionally *force* their font choice upon the end user.
