If I can find more than 13 broken substrates will you concede the point that one is not better than the other?

I don't know, it depends on the evidence. I have provided the results from my search for the word "substrate" in the sub-forums here. I even tried to filter out the posts where the damage was clearly accidental, such as a drop.
* If I recall, I found at least half a dozen of posts reporting "mysteriously" broken substrate in the Kobo forum since April of 2015.
** I was able to find only one such post in the Kindle forum since early 2014 and even there, the claim that there was no known cause was hearsay.
*** There is a similar pattern on the Best Buy site.
**** And then, there is my personal experience.
Given that Kindle presumably sells a lot more units than Kobo, I would have expected correspondingly higher number of "mysteriously" cracked substrate reports in the Kindle forums. Instead, my search found only one.
But feel free to prove me wrong.
