There's nothing "non-logical" about patching Kobos. Users patch for specific reasons. When you set up Moon+ Reader to taste is that also "non-logical?" Don't you consider worth the effort to get it set up the way you like it?

I'm sorry, but I'm not getting your meaning here.

It's not a big deal to me. Just like a Kindle, you're one tap away from your library (where only your books exist). And most of the time I'm reading a book anyhow, so there's not even that tap most of the time. I just open the cover and start reading. Simple.

By "they" I'm guessing (in this case) you mean me and, speaking for myself, you're basically right. I don't read PDFs on an eReader (not even on my 7.8" one, it's just not "comfortable"). I don't like PDFs on tablets or computers either. As far as I'm concerned the PDF format was designed for printing to paper, not reading on a screen.

That leaves me with ePub or Mobi books (basically novels). All I care about is that I have a dark font and good margins. And all my eReaders can provide me with that. So I'm good with what I have. Again, dedicated eReaders have advantages over a more general purpose eInk Android tablet. If you like your eInk Android tablet, I'm happy for you. I'm happy with my Tolinos, Kobos, Kindles, etc. To each their own. Should I be angry that you don't choose the way I choose?

Again there's no "one size fits all" in eReaders.
