There is a way to fix that by editing the epub's CSS. Basically you just need to remove the font-family line from the paragraph level and add it to the body level. Then the embedded font will only be used in paragraphs if you have the "Document Default" font set, and will be overridden if you choose any other font.
The same basic idea applies to justification and line spacing, if they are set at the paragraph level then they can't be adjusted on the device, but if set at the body level then they can be overridden by the device settings.
I prefer the epub reader, provided the epub is well constructed, but most epubs are poorly constructed and it takes time to fix all the publisher's mistakes. If I buy the book from Kobo I'll usually start reading the kepub version and only sideload the epub if there are mistakes that need fixing.
