Hard disagree when it comes to reading a novel, at least in the context I generally read these days: on a mobile phone.
Tap/swipe/arrows to turn really switches my brain. And the fact that the goal of this library is to allow native support for everything else for the entire book (like find, etc) really makes this feel like using the Kindle app or the Apple Books app. It's the first time I thought to myself, "no, I wouldn't need to download the ePub and put it on Dropbox so that I can easily import it to my favorite eBook app. The html version is great."
What I didn't notice is if your page number is captured in the url or not (again, because I'm on mobile). That seems like an important feature.
