Well, an ereader that doesn't support library lending *is* imperfect. Doesn't mean it's 'bad', but it doesn't have every feature available.

You know, Amazon sent a DMCA notice to this very site, regarding a certain software that made library lending on a Kindle work.

Not for hosting the software, mind you, which MR did not do, for merely *discussing* it.

Amazon does not want you to use a Kindle for library books - they have made that abundantly clear, even called in the lawyers over it.

So why support them on an issue they don't want you to?
