I was talking of my home cooked books against content available from publishers not because I want them to typeset according to my taste, but because publishers don't make any effort to typeset ebooks AT ALL.
Actually, I think the best looking book will be one were the publisher and the author work to harmonize form and content into an elegant whole. My choice of fonts is my take on that whole, I much rather see the author's.
