What you're talking about, and what you're laying into me for, has nothing to do with the point that I was repeatedly trying to make. I don't know why I have to keep repeating myself, but I'll try one more time...
The point that I'm making has to do with the, uh, "suggestion" that I not use iBooks (and use Marvin or whatever else instead), that I go tell everyone I know not to use iBooks, that I somehow go out and convince the entire world to not use iBooks -- which is an absolutely absurd suggestion to make, if anyone thinks that it's remotely possible. All I'll accomplish if I try is to maybe convince a couple of people, and totally pissing off the rest.
That was my point. That was my analogy with web design and IE. If you don't want to design for iBooks, well, fine! I could care less! All I'm saying is that if you don't, and things look "weird" in that, then most people using that won't assume that it's their software that's buggy, but rather that it's you.
Do you understand what I'm saying, and what I have been saying, over and over again, yet? I honestly don't know how I could possibly make that any clearer.
I'm not arguing with what you're saying, but if you want to rebut what I'm saying, well, at least rebut what I'm actually saying, the really rather simple and ridiculously obvious point that I've been making (or trying to make) over and over again. :/

I do understand your point.
I wish I could convince them all not to use it, too. ;-)
And, seriously: yes, OF COURSE, they assume it's you. I deal with that probably, 5-10x daily. I can't count, on a single hand, how many times a day I have to 'splain that the running header in Kindle looks the way it's gunna, no matter WHAT we type in there? That I can't KERN it? OMG....
