Great!
This is exactly what I was talking about in my post raising this topic.
After all, no one denies the very fact of the existence of the PDF format? On the contrary, many people actively use it. You just turned a blind eye to it for a long time.
And now, you give an opportunity! Use it or not - it will be the choice of a particular user.
I agree, the book "Gulliver's Travels" is more than strange. Like Siamese twins from different fathers who need to be operated on immediately.
But sometimes, embedding an example or sample on one or two pages is a perfectly acceptable solution.
The fact that some readers still cannot handle PDF is, as they say, their problem. Such primitive readers will soon be forgotten or not known at all, and people, ordinary users, will take more advanced things.
It's just terrible that all these personalities constantly saying "this is superfluous", "it will do", "we don't need this", "it's expensive", "it will cost", "we know better than you how to", "we don't want and we won't do it", "not expedient", "does not meet modern trends", "I don't understand this", "the time has not come", "not according to the rules", etc. prevent humans from landing on Mars.
