is there a simple way to do that please?
even if I tagged all the PDFs say, as "reference", I don't see how to create a grouping of "all except reference".
I don't want to have to tag every story in my calibre library as "fiction"

There is no way in CC to group by format (extension).
You can do in CC what you describe by creating the equivalent of a calibre virtual library with search for X or not X. Long press on the item X (reference) in the grouping drawer. A dialog will open asking if you want matching or not matching.
You can also create a custom column containing the names of calibre virtual libraries of which a book is a member. You would then add that column to the grouping drawer and use the same technique described above to limit what CC shows to the members of a particular virtual library. The custom column type is "Column built from other columns, behaves like tags" and the template is
Code:
program: virtual_libraries()
