OK, "significantly raising the price".

And since this is a thread about Kobo's "boring" designs, I think it's more than reasonable to discuss, you know, design ideas.

True, and I did give an opinion on this. But, I'll be blunt: I think it is a stupid idea. If you are going to increase the size of the screen, then actually use it.

Flush screens raise the price of the device and serve no functional purpose, but I don't see people complaining about that.

Not sure how flush screens raise the price. For function, I believe that they probably increase stiffness and strength. Or at least that is being claimed in some places. But, as to people complaining about them, have you read this forum? There are plenty of people here who don't like them and have expressed a preference for raised bezels. I'd say the lack of complaints is that everyone can see this is where the designs are heading and for most of us, it doesn't matter.
