Those may or may not bother you.

So, I have to ask, why are you going for pdfs over mobi?
Judging by the page layout and overall simplicity of the document, I'd say it's primarily for better hyphenation and justification.

I too do everything in PDF, though I use InDesign and not TeX. H&J is one major consideration, along with ligatures, swashes, custom kerning, numeral styles, smallcaps, more complex or attractive layouts, footnotes, multiple fonts, and page numbers.
