I only use swipe to turn pages, turn page is set to "Swiping only" in reading settings. Perhaps when turning the page with a tap has something to do with the accidental highlights?

Or perhaps infrared readers don't have the accidental highlighting problem like a capacitive touch reader would? My reader is infrared.
My reader is set to swipe turns only because tap to turn led to other mistakes (like accidentally opening menu). I think accidental highlighting when attempting to turn pages may happen more often if I am tired.

The other problem for me is trying to adjust the brightness. I have a hard time hitting just the right part of the left margin to trigger the light adjustment. I often end up accidentally highlighting several lines of text.
