More annoying marketing:

The handgrip tapers to an ultrathin 0.13” display so you can read comfortably for hours.

The part that is 0.13" is opposite the handgrip. The side you grip is squared off. (One thing I would change in my Kobo H2O is to taper its blocky bezels.)

A tapered ergonomic handgrip shifts the center of gravity to your palm, to rest in your hand like the spine of a book. Perfectly balanced for one-handed reading, Kindle Oasis enables you to get lost in your story.

For people who prefer ebooks, making it "rest in your hand like the spine of a book" is most assuredly not the way to enable "you to get lost in your story." I don't think it would really feel anything like the spine of a book, but I still think that asymmetric design would distract me from getting lost in the story.

Whether you choose to read with your left or right hand, Kindle Oasis automatically rotates the page orientation to match.

My Paperwhite does that too because I don't need to flip it!
Ok, I'll stop there because it's just making me mad.
