If it's plain text and the source is readily available, it's quite easy for a person to make a .pdf which will display quite nicely on a reader (or some other sort of ebook format) --- the problem only arises when someone for some reason has taken text, flowed it into a .pdf and failed to size / format it for the current, small-size, e-ink screens.

Given how new they are, and their limited numbers, this isn't that surprising. Give it time, it'll change.

For my part, I find the control a .pdf affords important for preventing typographic errors such as stacks which can't be controlled algorithmically.
