I just tried the Kobo supplied fonts on those pages with the Greek letters, and the same exact thing happens. Kobo will substitute another font so the letters do appear, but they are super tiny as before with CharisSIL. The only difference is the entire words are super tiny instead of just some of the characters. So it seems the results will always be not that pleasant.
Edit: I also noticed odd behavior with at least the Kobo Nickel font, where the last line of one page with any descenders gets cut off and will be seen at the top of the following page. I thought it might only happen where Kobo substitutes another font, but it can be on any page and you can often see a slight row of the bottoms of all letters across the line. This is on kepub only, the epub in the same book doesn't have that happen. I can only guess that the top margin with the book title is doing something to the spacing.
I thought it might be caused when I forced the line spacing to 1.25 instead of Kobo's usual 1.3 so I changed it with the slider, and it's slightly better. The entire line of text won't show a sliver of it on the following page, but descenders will still fall onto the following page.
