Why does anyone presume to decide what line length, font size, indent or any other facet of formatting is the best/only way things should be done? That's a strength of ebook readers. It allows for individual customization and I think it's reasonable to expect each person can make their own choices as to what is best for their reading enjoyment. I like that option and it's one of the reasons I use readers.
I think it would be nice if a common standard was used by all publishers but not in a way that unnecessarily restricts the customization allowed by the reader software.
It strikes me as being somewhat inflexible to asset that the only way to do things is the old way, i.e. the same as printed books.
