No one said that you can comfortably read with your screen's brightness turned to MAX in a completely dark room.

I didn't say the LCD had to be at max in the dark room. Even with it turned all the way down, you are looking AT the light source. Compare that to an e-ink reader who has some sort of accessory light. This accessory light provides not only light to the reading surface, but also ambient light all around the screen. As someone earlier pointed out, this is what makes the difference.
The LCD, with its inherent light, is certainly more convenient. But also harder on the eyes in a dark room.
