Could anyone who reads PDFs on a 9.7"/10.3" screen comment on the experience? Has anyone tried both?
Have you considered that we read double page on the 13.3'' screen, and that 9.7'' (area-wise) is halvish of 13.3''?
But it is not fully useful to judge on someone else's eyes - they differ.

In my opinion, the more content you put on the screen the better it is for reading, similarly to "panorama is better than binoculars / open door is better than keyhole".

Then get a Max2, if frustration is an issue. Control and speed. (The same must be valid for the Note.)

Removing the margins is obligatory, also since to keep a square meter of screen and a corner of text remains a sin if you are not doing performance art, and sin is paid.
