I think it's Apple's fault
Some folks have been duped into thinking that things like computers just turn on and work. Now me, I spent 27 years on Microsoft. Now there, you learn to get comfortable with uncertainty, to trouble shoot and try unconventional solutions (half the time my wife unplugs her PC with the power on, then plugs it back in to get it to start).
Now if Apple would make an eInk iPad Mini, or one just like that except a little bit smaller, it would work out of the box, do what they expect it to, keep working for 5 years and cost $400 plus tax--for the base unit. It would have no SD slot and no port except the power cord which would be a standard that no other manufacturer uses.
But they won't. So I have to ask myself why not? I think your answer is in there somewhere.
Edit: forgot a couple things.
