I have not used an SD card yet but I'm thinking about getting one for exactly these reasons.

If I only read books once it would be easy to limit the number of books on my Kobo to 30 or 40. However as I reread my books I would prefer to keep 300 to 400 books on it as I like to be able to browse and choose something at random - just like I used to do with my real books. When loaded with that many books the Kobo is very sluggish.

I have also found it necessary to do multiple resets which is fine when you are at home with access to Calibre or Adobe or your Kobo desktop but when you are away losing all your books is a disaster!
