You don't need the exact flowing of text to be consistent, outside of publishing. This is an anti-feature most of the time, something you specifically don't want.
Zooming is not something PDFs do well at all. I'm not sure in what universe you could call this a usability benefit. Just because it's made of vector graphics doesn't mean you've implemented zoom in a way that is actually usable. People with poor vision (who cannot otherwise use eyeglasses) don't use a magnifying glass, they use the large-print variant of a document. Telling them to use a magnifying glass would be saying "no, we did not accommodate for low eyesight at all, deal with it".
