This is only the case if you start koreader or coolreader via fmon from nickel. If you start for instance koreader by selecting "start koreader" in the Kobo Start Menu, nickel etc. are not killed, because they are not running at this point anyway.

The reason why one has to kill nickel is, that nickel does not give the user any option to exit it, the only "regular" way to exit nickel is to power off. Koreader and Coolreader, on the other hand let the user exit them. Therefore, there is no need to kill them.
