And it also allows a bunch of people who never should be published to stick their stuff out there.

It is vanity publishing without even the gate of needing to come up with a couple thousand dollars.

E-book only authors are not real authors. I am sorry if that hurts your feeling.

Besides, an e-book “store” will never have the smell of an actual bookstore. Especially an “old book” store. I can imagine the smell right know!

With the increasing "wokeness" of the publishing industry, e-publishing may be the only way to publish and distribute works that are inadequately woke.

I know of some people who self-publish and promote their work on Twitter with excerpts.
