I know lots of people that hate that styling on paper.

Also you can't tell the public what app or ereader to use. Personally I prefer an App that properly does the CSS and gives rendering similar to azw3 publisher settings or ADE with Publisher settings.
Your device is either broken... or the dropcap in the book isn't coded properly...

I'm not arguing that there aren't people who dislike that styling - don't care - and that you prefer something different wasn't the point... the point was that you can style the entire paragraph to overcome some of the issues people were having with dropcaps.

I wasn't trying to tell them what app/device to use - I just don't like limiting my creativity because someone out there uses an outdated device with broken functionality... If they get to the point where they are tired of their books looking like crap then they can get a standards compliant device (or put enough pressure on their device/app manufacturers to put out an update).
