Compare this (mobi on a Kindle):
To this (ePub in ADE):
To this (PDF):
If you're telling me that you prefer one of the former two, and think it is more "readable", I can only think you're being disingenuous.
And the source used to create that PDF could be used to produce multiple PDFs of various sizes formatted for various devices. In fact, I made that PDF, and made six different versions, for different sized paper/devices.
What I want is an ePub rendered that can make shot #2 look like shot #3 on the fly, which is certainly possible.

Now take a look at this which is ePub and it looks better then all three of your samples.
This shows that ePub can do it if you bother to do it.
