When working with dozens of files at a time, it saves time, and I will always automate anything that saves time.
When these publishers create new classes, they add them to the existing house style and it just adds more and more bloat. The idea of keep it simple doesn't seems to apply to most of the big publishers.

Thing is, I could take most of the publisher eBooks and clean up the code so it's well formatted with clean and simple code. It would mean when you buy an eBook, it would be ready to read with no eed for changes (in most cases).
