Books still activate a different part of the brain than reading on a screen, including e-ink, so it's not you or a dying breed, people may turn out to not learn as deeply or as quickly.

After seeing your comment I went looking! I found this interesting: https://phys.org/news/2024-02-screens-paper-effective-absorb...

Probably true but I'm not going to lug 10 textbooks onto a plane.

For sure, that would be a backpack that is too big as a carry on.
