5) has RGB/HEX configurable foreground (font) and background
If such a one exists?
This isn't really about being fussy, more about getting old!
Reading from Calibre's stock e-viewer is killing me. It allows for 1) and 5), naught on the rest; and for me mind, everything's too tight, cramped together and somehow way, way too sharp? Thick? Like.. semi-boldened fonts. I mean i use SF Pro Text everywhere, but it's never as "thick" or "pronounced" as it is on this e-viewer; nor as cramped.
Trying Apple's Books (no go, what a surprise) i realised that spacing is as important to me, by now, as fore/back ground HEX-RGB.
So, here we are. If any of you know of one, by all means help out
My thanks for your time, regardless,

The best viewer for your needs would be the one that comes with calibre. For the things you want that the viewer doesn't do, you have the editor to make the changes to get what you want.
The cramped fonts are the way the kerning is done with the fonts you are using. It's going to be the same on all eBook viewers that use Kerning.
