Why did this thread become so acrimonious?

My thought is that the Android e-ink readers are running apps not designed for e-ink and therefore will give a less satisfying experience than a 'traditional' e-ink reader. You'd have a better experience, shifting Amazon books to ePub or vice versa.
The Kindle is out, as the OP stated in the first post "I like my Kindle but it does not have the orange light which is important to me." There's the Oasis, but the OP didn't mention it. I'm assuming they are looking for something more inexpensive.
So the Kobo Clara or Libra seem like good options.
There's many other ePub readers, like the Pocketbooks and Tolinos, but I don't have experience with those.
There are Nooks, but I knew there'd be a landslide of criticism if I recommended one.
