> PDF documents on the other hands... they render just right, everywhere. I have to zoom and scroll,

To me it feels the other way around, if I have to zoom and scroll, they render just almost right.

And that almost is extremely important for actual reading. If you're quickly skimming a PDF, sure. But to sit down and read for 30 minutes? One hour? Fuck zooming and scrolling. My kindle just displays a page, and I tap it and it goes to the next page. Can't really get a much better reading experience than that.

If I’m reading that long, I don’t need zooming and scrolling on my ipad.

Epub on ereaders work well but only if you’re reading fiction. Most images and almost all tables and charts have been messed up by epub rendering anyway. And ereaders are black and white, so you’re losing information anyways.

right, this goes against what you said about rendering well everywhere, given how you mentioned your ipad. In any other device you will likely need to zoom and scroll constantly.

Tables and charts are also a specific use case. There's no mention of them whatsoever on the website so one can assume this is talking about mainly text.

In other words, you described the only time when PDF are more comfortable: if you have an iPad and you need to read charts/images/tables. Far from the claim of "they render just right everywhere".
