You are missing the point --- Kobo is not an ereader manufacturer. They (like Amazon) are an ebook store that sells ereaders at cost to promote their store. For them Calibre is a way people get non-Kobo reading materials on the reader. That obviously is not something they want to promote.

Remember, the days of the $400.- Kindle 1 are over.
