Not everyone likes hyphenation. Why force it on them (and take away their ability to search the text as a consequence)? Just make books and allow the readers to use the apps/devices/formats whose features they're most comfortable with (or that offer the customization options they value most). Hyphenation, line-height, letter-spacing, font-sizes, font-faces: these are all things that should be left up to the reader to tweak if they're so inclined (when speaking of standard body text). If hyphenation is important enough to them, they'll already be using a device/app/format that offers them the choice of enabling it (or disabling it).
