I get what you're saying. But the stuff I like about Kobo's firmware is stuff that doesn't need patching. The patches are a bonus.
I don't like that half of the Nook home screen is links to their store. Kobo instead uses that space to list a collection and my books. And Kobo doesn't charge you an additional fee to remove ads from home and sleep screen
I like that Kobo recognizes books are part of a series and lists them as such in my library and a search on the series title brings up the books in the series.
I like that adding your own fonts is simple. You may not have advanced control without a patch, but (even though I do enable it) I rarely use the advanced font control.
I don't like that ligatures aren't enabled by default. (They aren't on Nook either, but still...)
