I find it hard to believe that 30-40 drop caps in a 400 page-turn eBook do anything significant to readability. Spamming them on every paragraph...yeah, that would cause problems.

But, compared to things like font choices, font size, line spacing, contrast, etc., any reduction caused by drop caps is insignificant.
