You're right: your Kobo account is fine. HOWEVER what David was suggesting is that you SIGN OUT of your account ON THE DEVICE and sign back in to it. That completely clears the database on the device and resets it to factory conditions. The specific symptoms of bookmark not updating/stuck at an older point you described have been traced back to a database corruption in 99% of the cases reported here and signing out/in will almost always solve it. It could be something happened during the update that caused something to get out of whack in your database, or maybe it was coincidence that it happened around that time.
You may have a high level of database knowledge, but IMHO Davidfor probably has the best understanding of how the Kobo database and how the device uses it of anyone short of developers themselves so I wouldn't assume that he's wrong until you can prove a different cause.
The light issue is a different thing and that is a firmware bug that should be fixed in the next version.
