This is a weird argument. How can you argue whether something is annoying to another person, or whether someone other than yourself is experiencing eyestrain?
As for the refresh, I think some of this is context. Yeah, compared to turning the pages of a pbook, the flash should be no big deal. On the other hand, I've been watching pages turn for 45 years. I've seen eInk pages refresh for a couple of months. They bug me.
Also, before buying a dedicated reader, I used my Palm for years and years to read. So I got used to scrolling rather than flashing. This makes my Libre a great device for me. I have a friend who went kicking and screaming from pBooks to a Kindle, and now does not notice the refresh at all.
Different strokes and all that....
