I have disabilities affecting my wrists and hands. I read happily on my H2O for long periods, but supported by pillows. For me it is definitely noticeably heavier than my six inch Aura. My iPad mini Retina is far too heavy for me to read holding in my hands for more than a handful of minutes - I only read comics on that in bed with a carefully constructed pillow nest system.
But if the quoted blogger is happy to look at five inch screens but wants a fully fledged tablet style OS and non eink screen, why are they not simply looking at phones and phablets? There's plenty to choose from in that class of device, isn't there?
