Then LCD-pro camp must be ready for people for whom eInk is the only way to read ebooks will completely dismiss iPad as ebook reader.

As a stand alone statement, yes.

But one can still compare the reading experience on a tablet to that on an e-ink e-reader etc., and talk about the various pros and cons to reading on both types of devices etc.

No. Because for eInk camp, there can be no comparison, because our eyes cannot do it, so anything that is not eInk is not ebook reader for US. Not for everybody.
So, how my physical inability to enjoy LCD based gadgets, can be the inflaming statement?
If you discuss it in a topic where you compare oranges and oranges, for example iPad and tablets, or netbook and I pop in to this topic and start to flame LCD, then you could say it is inflammatory statement. Otherwise, what do you expect in a general thread that was posted for all readers, including eInk fans?
Frankly speaking I am not sure you are genuinely asking this question.
Because I cannot understand what is so difficult in understand this simple fact:
I cannot read on LCD based devices. It doesn't make them bad or good. I just cannot even compare them. So, for me they are not ebook readers. Just like for some people who cannot stand page turn speed of eInk devices, don't use them at all because the speed is unacceptable. However, if you don't want to hear from eInk fans that they dismiss iPad as ebook reader then don't start such a topic in a general forum, start it in iPad forum.
I repeat myself. I better stop. Either you got my point by now, or there is no chance.
