No one reads with the lights off, means (so you can understand) totally dark. Reading at bed is not dark, there is one light at least, and still you can use a lamp or even a Kindle light for that. Yes, you can use the LCD device but the light and lumens are higher, because they are coming from the device itself. Yes, you can change the setting, etc, etc, but still you will get more reflection about this.

There are tons of documents about why eink for non color books or pure text books, the letters are sharper and darker.
just more nonsense. LCDs provide more of true contrast ratio than eink eink only works with shades of gray. LCD's measure contrast from White to black.
So by you claiming that eink is more of a pure contrast ratio of white to black it just not right. dark gray to light gray is not black to white.

reading at night with the lights off causes reflection? I've heard everything.

But again just because you don't like reading on an LCd doesn't mean we all don't.

as I said I like both eink and LCD, each one has their strengths and weakness.
