Those pictures are from "Alice in wonderland" and belong to Kobo for Android. Try doing the same with basic css code; you won't be able; you'll have a lot of blank spaces here and there. The best reading experience can't be get with "KISS" code.
Sure there are some cases where you need more complex code to do something. But when you don't you keep the code simple. The eBook I mentioned and posted CSS from is simply formatted and does not need such complex code that StandardEbooks use. Also, you won't use more complex code where it's needed and not where it's not.
