It isn't so much that the blind person needs an e-ink screen, as it is that the cost of the e-ink screen is minimal, in comparison to the cost of the Braille display monitor.

The other factor is support. It is much easier to support one or two basic devices, and the accessibility tools that plug into them, than umpteen different devices, each of which is focused on a specific group of accessibility issues.
