I am guessing that someone stumbled upon the refresh of the OS the same way I stumbled onto the discovery that when the battery dies (0%) it tends to reset the system time to - on my Kobo's case - 1981 and simply spread it as gospel.

Both accomplish the same goal: resetting the system time. One is easier for the non-engineer.

Kobo Wifi vanishing books is common and predictable. Some would call it a bug. I call it a quirk.

I have had to be very diligent about keeping it charged to keep Kobo from time warping back to 1981.
