so I'd vote for better lighting any day, in place of improved chess playing

The light bleed on the Clara was due to a missing black tape IIRC. And fixed once they knew about it AFAIK.
I never had any crashing with my Kobos which I have used since 2014. So I assume they were due to corrupt books as they are the usual culprits in instances like this.
Forma edge strip is there because the devices form factor. It is a huge screen lighted from one side only. There has to be some sort of fading/brighter side. If people don't like it, they should either buy a smaller device with this form factor or buy another form factor alltogether. I doubt there is something to be done to change the brighter/dimmer thing with the Forma. For a lot of people the bigger screen, lightness of the device and having a mobius screen outweigh the uneven lighting.
None of the things you mentioned are software related (bar the crashing claim) and thus none of them are in the same ballpark as the games. So how would not having games benefit the hardware???
And why do you even rant about it if you are

Hm. So you are fighting on behalf of others whose unhappiness you mostly just suspect. Bit weird, don't you think?
