I'm certainly not disputing that you (and some other people) find LCD screens hard on the eye. Many people don't, though, and the "instant response" of the LCD screen makes many tasks a lot easier to do on an LCD screen than on an eInk screen, most notably annotation - something that's important for academic reading.
I think that for many people, the reason they get eye-strain on LCD displays is because the brightness is set too high. I always set the screen brightness to the minimum at which the book is still clearly readable.
