Your attempted logic is giving me a sprong ache. A bug is not something that does not function the way a user wants. Otherwise, following your logic, since my TV will not display a 4x3 broadcast without pillarboxing, that would be a bug.

IMNSHO, a bug is something that does not work the way the programmer intended. Since you seem to want the kepub renderer to function contrary to the epub 3 specification it was written to comply with, I would have to say it is not a bug. Is this a bug in the program you are using to convert epub to kepub? As I said before, GIGO. Giving it good input is yours to do.

You might try asking Kobo for a feature enhancement but since, AFAIK, Kobo does not officially or unofficially support third-party conversions to kepub, you may have tough sledding.
