In a well-set paper book, this does not happen, the letter width is also varied, which is not possible with the fonts in an ebook.

Hi:
Well...presumably you're aware, you must be as you're so up on all this--that with hyphenation and (on KDP) enhanced typesetting, that's
not happening now, right? Rivers are increasingly a thing of the past. I hate them myself, so I'm right there with you. Of course, typography/typsetting is my line of work, so it would irk the crap out of me and it
does, when I still encounter it.
