Well....consider what sort of processing power BS requires. To constantly calculate, based on the screensize, the column sizes--and then throw in what happens after that, based on font and font sizes? Oy. I think you're asking
an awful lot from a wee device, brother. Hell, how many websites are out there that aren't sitting on a web platform that supports bootstrap????
Unless/until ePUB moves along to CSS3, and devices have enough power, I just don't see this. BS also needs javascript and jquery.
They're going to have to make eReaders phabets/tablets, not eReaders, for that (bootstrap) to have the power it needs, and that, right
now, means
much heavier devices to read with. I have a plethora of devices, as I have to test on them all--and the lightweight Voyage, an eInk, is still my favorite. Easy on my wrists, hands and eyes. One of the reasons I dislike reading on my iPad is that it's sooooooo heavy, comparatively speaking. More power--but more weight, too.
