Not sure where you got the idea that e-ink is "more robust and pocketable". Can't say I've seen that claim anywhere. That extremely thin glass layer is what actually makes them MORE susceptible to damage via twisting or bending. Yes there is some talk of flexible e-ink, but those are research products and not commercially available yet and definitely don't reflect the current generation of e-ink screens.
