And I fail to see why the use of epubs makes one ineligible to comment in this thread...

I don't think you made a "serious error," I think you made a choice. If having ePub open format capabilities is one of your priorities then by all means you'd be better off supporting the companies that keep that format going. If nobody ever buys ePubs from Barnes or Sony or Kobo or any of the others, then Amazon will dominate the market even more than they do already.
