If you’re sprinkling ordinary text in, it becomes a pretty good example of a book Amazon will potentially push back on (upon complaint, which I didn't realize until I saw Hitch's comment above). And there probably would be complaints, because the average joe doesn’t really know fixed from reflowable. They’ll just try to resize the text or something and find that the book “doesn’t work right.”

Curious about this: it sounds like maybe you're thinking fixed is ideal for phones, and reflowable is ideal for e-ink? Reflowable is actually ideal for both. In fact phones are probably the worst candidate for fixed. By the way, reflowable is also a lot easier to tinker around with when it's not doing what you expect.
