Basically, if we want to design with italic we should be making print books, not ebooks. To regard an ebook as an e-equivalent of a print book is just a short period in history when we couldn't see too far ahead.
Hint: if you are already in your ebook editing software changing your CSS, a simple S&R will save you from that awkward situation.

An ebook is not carved in stone, you can always go back and change it.
