I guess there could be a bit of a Surface contingent using the desktop program, but I'm not seeing why they should invest a lot of time and money bringing their desktop programs in line with their mobile line (feature-wise).

I'm not dismissing people who read on desktops, just thinking of the cost effectiveness in trying to satisfy the niche of the niche.
I think this mainly concerns readers like me who also work with books. Apple did a really great job making iBooks on the Mac work seamlessly with their iOS devices which allows readers to read books on their thingies and then review their annotations and notes on their computers, copy from books and upload books from there. Very important in the edu sector and for all sorts of professional readers.. but of course you are correct: perhaps this does not concern the majority of existing users...
