Or limitations of the screen and E-ink technology itself?

I guess that 1) those developers read on tablets/iPads themselves, or don't read books at all
and 2) they imagine that most of the users of the dedicated ereaders are old and/or disabled people who need large font sizes. Because why would a young and healthy person want to read on eink?
