Yes, and most authors still use computers like glass typewriters. Most publishers do paper first and ebooks are an afterthought.

Ability to successfully publish or ability to write great content is totally unrelated to the skills of producing ebooks or properly using styles in the wordprocessor.

Also "Nobel prize level author" actually doesn't mean much about the general entertainment value of the writing, or even the "quality". Same can be said of most book awards too. Some used to be be an indication a book was worth reading, less so now. There is a lot of literary snobbery.
