Here's the thing, Peter...
With the Kindle App on my phone and ipad, I can read anywhere and my spot in the book syncs between devices. When I'm sitting in a Dr.'s office, waiting on the wife to shop, sitting on the can, whenever I have downtime, I can read a few pages.
It's not hard to read, and while I certainly don't want to read a whole book on the phone, it is simply awesome for times when I just don't want to put a book down because it's SO good.
If the book isn't rocking me, then I just don't use the phone to read. It sure is nice when I find a book I love, though.
I guess this still leaves me in the "you are nuts to read a book on your phone" group, because it's not something I normally do, not at all.

Think of the feature as a value-added goodie rather than a real tool for reading. Then it makes good sense, and becomes a really cool and usable feature.
