And I have the hunch that your silly baseless assertion is a silly baseless assertion. Unless you have citations for peer-reviewed, double-blind studies showing difference degrees in data retention depending on by which means text is displayed?

I don't think we need to reciprocate antagonism in order to make our points. I suspect there's similarly limited research that compares the cognitive response to printed text that is displayed vertically rather than horizontally, which seems to be one of the major sources of cognitive dissonance with regard to screen reading (of course, by presumption rather than research). I think it's worthy of investigation...but not worthy of special vocabulary to distinguish reading media.
