They "merely" have to show what actually exists instead of giving a virtual display (the current view).
(I know this is very simplified. I have no idea how it actually works. But I also don't know why it should be a technical problem.)

You are correct. You can create real folders and put ebooks in them and the unit will work fine separating them into two tabs at the top of the bookshelf screen, One for eBooks and One for Documents. However these are all assembled into a database that is unique to the Kobo firmware and Kobo design of the eBook environment. You never actually look at the real file system unless you look through its connection to a PC when the USB is plugged in.
