Well, we're close, but...
- Don't really care about the TOC one way or another. Can't remember the last time I utilized one. I read books from beginning to end, and have no need to bounce around. I'm not studying.
- I don't have an unrealistic zero-tolerance policy on misspellings or missing spaces. No novel-length print book I ever read was without errors, so I see no need to place the bar higher for ebooks. As long as they're fairly rare, I'll survive.
- I'm Ok with whitespace-only for a scenebreak.

As far as the OP's complaints ... they lost me at "notice the soft serif font?" I don't even know what that implies (and no, I'm not asking for a lesson).
