That decision is
not made by the Kobo. It is made by the publisher. Like any other computing device, the Kobo simply follows it's instructions. If you are really addicted to reading them, it's just a couple taps and a slide to get there.
As for the index? Do you mean a table of contents? The one that is often at the end of the ebook and not the beginning? Why bother since it is much easier to pop up the table of contents based on the contents of the toc file. If you mean a real index, again the TOC makes it much easier to find.
You read those pages where they list every book the author has written, co-written, edited or otherwise contributed to? Every time you read that book? The first time I read a book by an author, I might skim over that content. After that, why bother?
