Speaking as a total Jane Austen nerd, this is clearly meant to appeal to a mass-market audience. My fellow JA nerds will expect good scholarly introductions and other high-level material to lure them. Of course, JA nerds in my experience have Luddite tendencies anyway. I try to indoctrinate in the digital way as best I can.
