I didn’t have FSD, but this is pretty much what cruise control / lane assist did.

“Smart” in this context wasn’t as much of a thing back then, but The Transporter had a similar option.

I prefer physical media, but I appreciate the utility of ereaders. I, too, would prefer buttons if I used an ereader with any frequency; I still lament the disappearance of them from my phone!
However, in case this is a problem you really need fixed: my wife is an avid ereader user. She didn’t like the page turning for many of the reasons you listed, so she bought a ring that has Bluetooth and a singular button. The ring connects to your reader, then when you press the button, simulates a click or screen tap. You get the page turning experience it sounds like you want and, after setup, the only thing you need to physically exert at all is your thumb.
edit: Fixed an embarrassing number of typos.
Hey now, no matter how talented anyone is at something, we all did whatever it is for the first time once.
For example, I’ve opened this post as nearly the first thing I saw after waking up three times now and I’m getting pretty good at not flinching!
Oh no! Regardless of which way I turn, there’s a wall!
Happy belated anniversary!
