I will admit it freely: if you don't use Calibre (or something similar) software to send tags to the Sony reader, then you get to put the collections on the device manually, not wholly unlike the Nook.
Of course, the process is STILL better on the Sony because you can zip directly to the "Zs" or whatever with the Sony rather than having to page over 15+ times on the Nook through your giant library.
But, no, you're right: if you turn off all the advantages of Sony, it becomes significantly less advantageous. Also, if you hit it with a hammer a few times, it sucks then too.

As I said, it would be nice if the Nook had an auto-create-shelves function like that.
The point is, it would require people to use PCs and some sort of library-programme - which isn't a problem or a big deal for any of us here but is actually something you think the average customers don't want to put up with (going by your comment about 'forced side-loading' [connecting to a PC] in one of the
Pottermore-threads).
For the 'average customer' the simple (without PC and extra software) on-device handling of books is the best option. If you say it's better on your Sony than on the NookClassic I have to take your word for it, since I can't compare them.
