Anyone wishing to make improvements to the way Standard Ebooks presents their ebooks should remember that they are not hand-crafting individual books, but have books in a standard format which is then automatically processed to produce variants ('compatible' epub, kepub, etc).

Suggesting changes to individual books isn't very useful. Suggesting changes to the code that produces the variants to increase compatibility without compromising modern coding standards, would help.

davidfor's example of the media query is excellent. A simple change that does not compromise on the modern standards, but enables older systems to render the book more faithfully.

Similar suggestions will, I expect, be welcomed by Standard Ebooks.
