I guess you think that because one silly reviewer drew pentagrams! LOL. You just write something on the page in order for it to be bookmarked.
It wasn't for no reason that I referred to the above video. Have a look at mark 1:50 onwards and particulary 2:10 - if I'm not utterly mistaken that's precisely what I described https://youtu.be/d9fPqkIhcl4?t=1m50s

A rendering of the complete page, with handwritten notes, is shown in the "Handwriting List", such that you can actually read the text and see the context, an excellent feature, in my opinion. The Highlight list shows the actual text that you highlighted, also a wonderful thing, I think.

I find this approach to be simple, clean, and more powerful than the original approach.
The things that you describe as "more powerful" are available in the DPT-S1 in exactly that fashion. Scribbled notes are listed with a preview of the page, highlights are listed by the text that was highlighted (sticky notes, and text notes, which are not available on the DPT-RP1 are also listed) and can be sorted and filtered, together with bookmarks.

I understand better now that you don't feel like there are features missing in the RP1, if you have never noticed the existence of those in the S1 (which I understood you owned and used). I don't think I have to change anything about my argument in this case.
