Not anyone is looking for a constant stream of dopamine hits from their display.
Sometime to simplify, sit and ponder and save oneself from constant visual interruption is my main preference for e-ink displays.
'Modern' computing has become pretty much intolerable for work for me.
Any display that does not abuse my eyesight and can be passive like paper, is basically my go-to answer.
I do not tolerate having to re-read the sentence I'm looking at because the display looks smooth, but can't hold a static representation to save it's life. My sister's macbook is gorgeous, but impossible to read text. She doesn't read as much anymore.. because of this phenomenon.
Something about the display makes you stop seeing the line above and the line below the one you are currently reading, making it hard to hold a whole paragraph in your head, cause you're constantly re-scanning the same lines you didn't expect to drop. Like you're reading through a pinprick sized hole.
