But yes, Kobo could certainly make it much better with the proper refreshing method as you said. It wouldn't seem to be more of a battery drain, so I don't understand why they don't. And why they don't force a refresh automatically when waking a book.

The rest of the reading experience is pretty blissful for me, so I guess I'm willing to put up with manually refreshing when I need it. Others might not be, which I can really understand since it could be done better on Kobo's part.

I don't have ghosting while reading (refresh set to every chapter). I have a sleep screen that blinks once and 6 panels refresh followed by a database getting corrupted.
Apart from this recent behavior, I've had a rather blissful reading experience with Kobo devices over the past too many years to recount. (when was the aura 6 inch first launched? nearly 7 bleedin years ago and nearly 500 ebooks later, I've been as happy as an effluviant porcine.)
Be keeping an eye out for a new reader soon so, and I really don't want to go down the kindle route. (Familiarity more so is what has me wanting to keep to kobo.)
