I am in totally in agreement with you that many publishers don't seem to care enough about typesetting, but surely you admit this statement is completely over the top?

Also, your work flow could really be collapsed into:
- download
- edit with Sigil
- view on device

One issue with embedded fonts in epubs, I find, is that many readers don't display them very attractively. Comparing against an iPad, Apple's font rendering blows away every eink reader I've ever seen. Unfortunately, iBooks is a little too simple as a reading app for my taste (and of course, there is the whole LCD vs eink thing).
