All I'm saying is that Amazon don't have a monopoly on complaints. None of these device is perfect.
That is a valid complaint (I prefer the clarity and reduced glare due to the lack of capacitive layer and etched glass myself), but I was specifically addressing your characterisation of the Voyage screen-related complaints as stemming from unrealistic expectations.

Would you appreciate it if I said that your dissatisfaction with the infrared touch on the Kobo stems from unrealistic expectations?

One mustn't be dismissive of genuine complaints. Your complaint about the touch on the H2O didn't stem from an unrealistic expectation because there does exist a competing device that did it better (the Voyage). Similarly, the complaints against the Voyage screen do not stem from unrealistic expectations because there does exist a competing device that executed the front lighting better (the H2O).
