Belive me, Koreader does nothing compared with EbookDroid; you just need to take some time in order to learn how to use it. Maybe this tutorial can help you a bit with that task:

https://code.google.com/p/ebookdroid/wiki/FAQ

Why do you think it has a rating of 4.5 with more than 1000.000 of downloads?
"What no reflow?" - That could be part of the reason "Koreader does a great deal compared with EbookDroid", amongst a number of things, Koreader does have Reflow. Koreader's builtin OCR scanning of PDF files makes possible text and page formatting that, is not possible with PDF readers that do not have something similar. (Koreader is not the only reader that has this reflow capability.)

Koreader is much more limited, as to notetaking, compared to your EbookDroid, though. It does have an "EverNote" plugin.

There is no commercial version of Koreader.

Koreader's OPDS support is very handy and you are the one who selects or enters the URLs for the online OPDS catalogs, you want to access. There is no Koreader server connection required to use Koreader.

Except for freehand drawing on documents, I am not sure there is anything that EbookDroid can do that Koreader can't do also.

There are many PDF reading Android apps, not just these two, Which one has the features and strengths that an individual will want, is mostly a matter of personal preference.

Luck;
