Actually paper books are an inferior product for many reasons:

1) moderately large to large books are uncomfortable to hold after a while.

2) Fixed font size.

3) Take up physical space (i.e. you can have books and other kind of "publications" like magazines in a Kindle).

4) Unsearchable.

5) Every reader essentially has to "hack" something as simple as progress saving.

>"they require no battery": This doesn't really make paper books a superior product. The same argument could be said of landline phones but that doesn't make them better than cellphones.

>"accidental touchscreen events": Not all ereaders are touchscreen based, an in any case it's a poor, circumstantial reason.

Your other reasons amount to pretty much preference, none of them make paper books categorically superior to ereaders.

You have to have a dictionary or computer on-hand if you want to look up a word. Books don't light themselves.
