I willingly bought the new 7" Oasis because of the host of improvements it offers over the Paperwhite, not only a larger screen.
It has a flush bezel, it auto rotates when I switch hands, there are page turn buttons, it has 8gb of storage where my Paperwhite has 2gb, the screen resolution is better, it has audio capabilities with Bluetooth, and the overall design and balance of the device is improved.
If the only improvement had been a larger screen, I would somewhat agree with the OP. But the improvements are more than just screen size.
