Unfortunately, it's not matter of opinions in this case. Software interfaces theory and usability laws do not work that way. Either an interface does always the same thing responding to the same input, or it doesn't. That's consistency. Yours is not - sorry to say. As you say, "as it is the last it..." decides what the best behaviour would be, and acts accordingly, with a different action.
This might not be negative - in fact, you do like how it acts - but it is not consistent. As I said, this is not matter of preferences, these are just facts. So we're back to page 1: you may prefer the way kobo behaves, but that is not consistent.
