I once bought an eBook from Simon & Schuster. The CSS was broken. I was unable to find how to return it. I had a dive into the code and was able to fix it.
I have to admit, when I saw all that code (some 174,000 extra lines, all in all), I couldn't help but think how horrified you in particular would be, LOL!

I've never seen anything like that before, and I've seen some pretty bad ebooks. Once I got rid of all those font declarations, the actual book wasn't too bad to clean up. No wonder Calibre was poking along while I was running the error check though....
