Well, it was just an easy "worst case" test to put ebooks through.
Cellphones:
- are skinny/small
- can turn landscape
- read out loud
- usually have "Night Mode" (changing colors).
All the "worst case" tests right there!
If you have an actual ereader (Nook/Kobo/Kindle), you can do similar:
Even bumping up the font size a few notches breaks badly coded books. (Like outside margins growing even larger, giving you even LESS space for big text.)
