Having moved from a Nook ST with Glowlight to an original Kobo Aura to a Nook Glowlight Plys, Nook Glowlight 3 and Kobo Clara HD, my experiences have not been the same as yours.
The Nook ST was perfect for me and I have no doubt I could still be reading on it to this day. It was perfect until I got the Aura. The Aura was just slightly better than the Nook and I wouldn't have wanted to go back.
I was happy with the Aura for years and years. Then I got the Glowlight Plus, 3 and Clara HD in quick succession. Suddenly the Aura looked gray and almost unreadable.
EInk readers don't advance with the rapidity phones and tablets had, but each incremental improvement is an improvement. I have not seen any of the regression you mention.
