Okay I see what you mean. To me the gold standard really is just plaintext. For scientific reporting, you can mark up reports with simple tools like asciidoc. So now you have a format-agnostic presentation that can be consumed any way you like, transmitted through essentially anything you like, for example Nostr or whatever offline reader.

Quite the opposite from saying "this is the (probably DRM'd) format, it has text embedded, and you can only use X/Y/Z (probably locked/closed/restricted) app to consume it".
