Indeed, much better.

A few quick observations on iOS/Safari (all about the styling, which may be an indication that the XML structure works):

The first click on an internal/literature reference link adds a pilcrow to the paragraph if it didn’t have one yet (this is also true of the TOC).  The second click then advances to the linked reference, the first line of which is sometimes obscured by the TOC menu (if not, scrolling is needed to get the TOC menu again, but that is kind of OK).

How do you add a pilcrow to a paragraph that doesn’t have a reference?

Some horizontal scrolling is needed to view a box notation artwork of more than 18 bits (37 columns).  This is a bit more complicated because both the artwork and the entire document scroll horizontally, so the result is somewhat non-deterministic.  (This is also sometimes true of long headings; I haven’t found a way to reproduce this — maybe it was the smart sizing feature of iOS Safari.)  It would be better to nail down the document so only the artwork needs to scroll horizontally.  I also don’t know why the document text is sometimes wider than the viewport.

Going to landscape just increases the font size and doesn’t help with the artwork.
