No. You're right, it's so much easier to adapt to whatever environment you're in. I'm in my dorm and read waay into the 2am, obviously with my roommate I can't have a light on, so this is just perfect. It's easily accessible, adapts to your orientation easily, it's perfect. I have a bunch of physical copies that I haven't touched because it's just so much easier to read on my kindle. It's a great invention that has come out of the digital age tbh, I don't find it to be a "sad" reality.
