Because the random connection losses caused by the USB drivers that Kobo just cannot seem to get right can cause database corruption (among other problems less severe but equally annoying).
I am being honest: I got an h2o ed2 on the cheap and I was totally looking forward to using it. The first thing I noticed: I have to stand on my head and whistle a tune to get it to connect to my computer which I will have to do quite often because Kobo does not allow my books into the cloud. My experience tells my that after half a year of random disconnects something will snap and I will have to factory reset, thereby losing all my notes and stats irretrievably.
Everytime I get a Kobo I hope that something will be different. Unfortunately it never really is. Kobo is a really crappy product. It‘s crap dressed up with nice font and page controls, but that does not make it not crap.
