This is insane. Almost everything done here to make things fast were things that I had assummed that e-ink displays aready did, because they are so slow, I figured their behaviour was the best that could be achieved after trying all these kind of tricks.

It makes me what other things could be much better if they received some attention from someone who cares about it.

There may prove to be reasons (longevity?) that they don't.

Power longevity might not be the reason since in this project, having faster transition seems to be done by using less change waves, which probably uses less electricity.
