But, for a standard text book that you want to flow, I agree <pre> is not a good choice.

However it is in the list of required features for ePUB and can be useful if it is implemented correctly, i.e. obey the format but wrap if it the line is longer. Not a bad compromise. You can't just say not to use it as the standard permits it.
