>>I want to be able to change the font size and have the text reflow correctly. With PDFs you end up with broken layouts if you don't view it exactly as formatted.

Reflowable books also do a poor job reflowing content.

Case in point, the free AWS ebooks on kindle are a god-awful mess whenever they add code snippets, no matter how small.

Given the choice, a good fixed format layout beats a bad reflowable layout.




Especially as the choice of layout and elements like fonts is neither trivial nor unimportant, and a good readable code font is not easily replaced with $monospace_font_goes_here
