Not to me.
1. Look at the next line to see the end of the sentence. Certainly in the fraction of a second it takes to go to the next line you won't forget what you read. I really doubt that the majority of German readers are using small font sizes anyway.
2. This would be a problem on any size ereader with any font size. You're not going to make it a 1:1 correspondence between a sentence and a line. A sentence ends early, the next sentence begins and won't be concluded until the next line. This will happen more often than not.
3. What does reading German prose have anything to do with the OP who is from Wales?
The OP is certainly not forced to use a small font size on a 6 inch ereader. Whether he reads in English, German, Swahili. Doesn't matter. It was a silly assertion that needed to be debunked.
