That seems reasonable, but the thing is that NOOK doesn't know if all of the text in the e-book is in the embedded font. So it has to give you a choice of fonts in case it comes across some text that isn't forced.

(Example: a math e-book might use the changeable fonts for most text, but include an embedded Greek font which is occasionally used for Greek letters.)

NOOK never gives you a font choice for PDFs. They either use the embedded fonts or Light Classic.
