You aswered it yourself. You are trying to read under the wrong or a far from optimal reading environment. In this case non-device light sources that don't emit enough light, and/or too few light sources, and/or the wrong position of the light sources.
This has nothing to do with the device and all about the reading enviroment.
So in fact your are saying: because my reading conditions are far from optimal I need large screen margins on the top because my main light source is positioned in front of my device and also positioned quite low. The result: a huge shade of the top bezel.

If you change your reading position you'll also need huge margins on the left, right or bottom because of your poor lightning conditions.
And, I'm also quite sure you read at a very huge font size for compensation.

Hey, I sound very pro Kobo now, it's a Monday.
