PS actually that's worse than stupid - you could be travelling + reading on an almost flat battery - then daily sync kicks in because you forget to turn it off. your Kobo goes into firmware upgrade install but does not have enough juice to compete - > potentially bricked ? ( I don't suppose it is smart enough to check its own charge status before it begins all that ? )
You keep your wifi on all the time? That's a good way to drain your battery.

Is there a way to have wifi on but not sync?
