Real shame about it being net/cloud dependent. Oh well.

I'm not making any "assertions" - just expressing a personal opinion
. You're right that most paperbacks do have an aspect ratio very close to that. Perhaps it's just that we're all so used to reading books on screens with a 4:3 aspect ratio, that the narrower format looks strange.
