I understand the roots of the margins though. In printing press, wide margins allow for the printer to hold on to the paper better, this is especially important for large scale fast-paced printing like everyday newspapers. It is also cheaper to just “waste paper with wide margins”, but print more and sell immediately, than also having them trimmed down after printing.

For ereaders, though, except for the habit to have “open space around text” - I don’t the point…
