I'd suggest a better comparison would be between a photographer choosing film or digital.
There are still plenty out there who develop their own film, particularly black & white, and many of the reasons why they choose it over digital are similar to the reasons why one would choose eink over a back-lit screen: richer texture, better resolution, less distractions from the art-form, simplicity as a strength.
You might respond, 'aren't film-users more like p-book readers?' However, many who use film ultimately scan their negatives electronically, making selective use of tech developments in a similar way to those who choose eink readers.
No 'pro' photographer would ever make a digital film and then use individual still frames from the video.
