I still say that the only software that's really able to do this, at least for the time being, is the human brain, and this takes a long time to do it. So, creating different versions for different screen sizes would be quite time-consuming and expensive, and from the publisher's POV, why make the effort, when you can have one-size-fits-all formats which most readers prefer anway.
