Backlit devices will always cause eye strain and hinder your ability to read for extended periods. I stare at them enough, don’t want to be doing it while reading. Not to mention LCD screens are terrible in the sun. I like to use my phone in the car when I’m not driving, but having to read constantly with the sun coming in from the window would drive me insane. This display looks exactly like paper in the sun.
If you think the screen refreshing every 6 page turns is hugely distracting then that’s fine, but I don’t see how it’s more distracting than glare on an LCD screen when reading in a lit room.
