Can't say I have had this problem but maybe I didn't notice.

I'm not easily distracted. But when the eBook just looks wrong (to me), it isn;t as easy a read as the formatting is noticeable. I like it when the formatting is not getting noticed or in the way.
Completely agree with that, but some books it is not worth the bother (to me) to even think about fixing. I am no longer willing to devote several hours of time to fixing a book that will take me less time to read, although I admit to doing this more than once.

In these cases, I either read through the errors, or if they bother me too much to do this, I go onto something else and may or may not buy or borrow another copy in the future.

Luckily I rarely find a book that is ugly these days. When I started reading ebooks 2 out of three from reputable sources were still a bit on the unpleasant side.
