My problem is that early ebooks were so full of errors that I came to expect the errors. Now ebooks are much better, but I am so conditioned to look for errors that I see things that never bothered me before, e.g., two single quotes instead of a double quote, italics that include the beginning quote but not the ending quote (or vice versa), inconsistent paragraph indents, blockquotes, line-spacing, etc. I don't much care what the PH's standard is, as long as it is consistent throughout the book. But it seems that is too much to expect just yet.
