As for page margin, I find it odd anyone should complain that 0.5em is breaking the device. A complaint that I am preventing someone adding 0.1 em less margin is odd indeed. Have you never seen an epub open with zero margin because using the epub's CSS value? Then you force the reader to fiddle with margin settings.
Yes, I have seen an ePub open with 0 margin. And by having a 0 margin, I can set the margin to what I want, not what you want. I have my Kobo set how I like it. Your .5em margin would break that.
