With typography, as with most things in life, there is a threshold. Below that threshold text becomes difficult to read for most people. Above that threshold, only typography nuts complain about the lack of typography. IMO e-books are well above that threshold.

They correctly handle typefaces, punctuation, paragraphs, text styles.

They fail on: hyphenation, widows and orphans

Of the fail list only hyphenation is something that a non typography nut would notice.
