The only reason I'm asking you to stop is not because you are saying something bad about Kobo, but you are saying something that is not true.

So, you are calling me a liar, because I have had a different experience than you?
When I searched for "substrate" in the Kindle sub-forum, in addition to the one second-hand description of inexplicably broken substrate, I found two posts since early 2014, both stating that they dropped their Kindles.
In the Kobo forum, there are a whole bunch of posts just this year, from users claiming that they have substrate cracks, but have not dropped, or otherwise damaged, their Kobos. Below are the posts about likely broken substrate, since about April 2015:

These do not include posts stating that there was a drop, even if the poster claimed that there was minimal impact.
Compare these to the Kindle "substrate" search, or please do your own and prove me wrong.
Hate to say this, but if Kobo's sales were more significant, this would be class-action material.
