IMHO, Pocketbook did not even need something like a comfortlight, because its lights were always warmish yellow-tinted. Inverted colours are still nice to have though for night reading (achievable with Koreader on Pocketbook).
In contrast, comfortlight on Kobo is a must-have, not just a nice-to-have, because Kobo's lights emit intensely evil blue. Since I come from Pocketbook, Kobo's evil blue was particularly noticeable for me. A Kobo without comfortlight is not good for night reading.

Which of the Kobo devices emit "evil" blue light? Since the lights have been added to the Kobo devices, people have commented on the colour for each of the devices. Some have been bluer, some have been yellower. And there have been an equal amount of complaints for both. Or are you just talking about the newer devices with ComfortLight Plus that can control the colour of the light? Are you judging the colour when the other colour options are completely turned off?
As to calling blue light "evil", isn't the problem the time of day? The recommendation is to decrease the blue light before bed to improve your sleep. I don't think I've ever seen a recommendation against it at other times of the day.
