I think your frustration and lack of familiarity with the software might have colored your perception when it came to actual PDF rendering abilities.
Mind, iBooks should've been pre-installed on shop models and it can definitely display PDFs in fullscreen paged mode.

1. Oh I see, i just did little math to confirm how close above list is from 4:3 ratio, and all ipads are 4:3, but the 2 androids are not.. they are smaller in width than they should to be 4:3.
2. Seems the difference between iPad Pro 10.5" and the new iPad 9.7" (2018) is around 1cm extra in both dimensions.. so logically i would imagine its not worth to pay the double for the extra cm (and the other pro nice to have feature that screen adapts colors/brightness depending on ambient light) ?
