On a slightly more serious note: one plus to micro SD is that (in theory) you could eject the card from an old reader, plug it in to a new one and all your books are there.

(I say all this, though in general, I agree with your sentiment.)
How often do you change ereaders, anyway???

And the professor will be more than happy to make you a wood-burning computer to transfer your books with. Problem solved.

I don't even read them to begin with.

But assuming someone reads them, and wants to read them on an E-Ink device, I certainly wouldn't recommend an ereader that can only store a handful of their manga.

It's all about needs, real vs. perceived.
