yeah, it's a pity they implement $_stuff insted of reminding themselves that throughout the centuries typesetters managed to develop their craft in order to smooth reading experience, and implement their all M.C: Escherean quirks first. i.e. all the thricks done to a bookpage to level-up reading experience (which I'd describe as finetuned asymmetry to trick humans eye into seeing it as "cleaner and well placed"

As for now most ereading benefits are hardware-based: weight, and size mainly,
the rest is ignored...
to make something "better as" it has by mere logic 1st be "as good as" and as long as achievements and craft of typesetting professionn is ignored an "as good as" status quo can't be reached - instead of working on the smoothing they work on jamming in distractions.
what bet, that some of the morons looked at any potter-movies newspaper with it's stupid dancing photos in the paper and tought "that 'd be cool if we could do that with readers"
And that would be IMHO the best idiocy-case to come.
After you finished vol 1 of a bookseries, just wait for the banners popping open:
"book two of the adventures of foobaria coming out soon" And this to happen every time you reread...
