I find the reading hours stat useful for the same reason as EndlessWaves, a measure of how much reading I can get from one battery charge.
The features like awards, Facebook, Pocket, games, Beyond the Book, etc. are of no interest to me, but then they are purely optional extras, I just don't activate/use them and so I never see them. Having them as options doesn't interfere with my use of the device for reading in any way.
