Why would I want to double the weight when I can only read one screen at a time?

According to the article its about the emotions of reading it

Or in normal words its double the price with no actual improvement just for the feels

So its basically „we want to replicate analogue thing as close to original as possible, no matter if not having that feature is the next logical step for convenience.

Bit niche but maybe keep the index open to jump around, or a map or other reference? I agree though.
