I'm not invested in this so you can discount my opinion, but without immersion, I don't really see the point of Audible integration. I mostly listen to audiobooks when I'm in hands-free mode, walking, driving, puttering around the house, and I want a device I can stick in my pocket. Yeah, in the house I could stream it (assuming no one else is around to be bothered), but there's the nuisance of shifting the speakers if I'm moving around, and it could ride on the car seat easily enough, but I'm certainly not going for a hike with it flapping at my hip. Without immersion, the Oasis is just an oversized, overly fragile media player with lousy controls. IMO, of course. Doesn't mean it's not worth it for the size alone.
