Or proofing, and you export the highlights & annotations to desktop and use them to guide editing. Then you make a new ebook, remove the old one completely, and send the new one. Did this for a few years on Kindle before switching to Kobo.
Highlights & annotations & bookmarks on the actual ereader (any make/model/OS) are useless if you update the ebook. It's only worth copying them with ebook to same model/version ereader, or exporting.
I'd only start annotating any fiction if I decided it's badly OCRed and needs edited. Then those notes are only for fixing on desktop, no use for an updated ebook.
Text books are a different issue. If you need the notes on the ereader then you can't update the ebook.
