Well, majority, majority.... Let's say that I seriously doubt that a lot of people know what a "standard epub" is. I really, really doubt majority of people know there is a standard. And "bona fide" modifying specs? Well, good luck with that (and yes, it's modifying the specs as all the previous discussion has been based on a gramatical point, difference between should and must).
And, additionally, I can imagine my reader friends' face if I ask them if they have been aware of the lack of a monospaced font. The first question will be: what is that?
