Yes.
But if you look at this poll https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho....php?t=249989:
10 members prefer Kobo and 10 deem sideloading important.
Not necessarily exactly the same 10 people, but there obviously is a correlation.
And quite understandably: Personally, I'd always buy a reader with SD expansion when sideloading. a.) It can be easier to move content to an exchangeable SD card than to internal memory. b.) When sideloading, I wouldn't want to be limited to a meager 2GB or 4GB. And personally, I'd always sideload in the widest spread format, not a format mainly used by a single vendor.
