The ability to effectively read the same epub on tiny phones, mid size, or giant size screens while keeping captions and images and text sizes in good-looking layout is difficult without this new tech.

I think it would be interesting to explore whether you're right about the limits on current markup.

Futher posts here will be deleted.
