If you really don't want the books downloaded from Kobo, then the simplest thing to do is to create a separate account for the device. Buy books using the current account, read sideloaded versions using a different account. Wanting to use Overdrive complicates it. But, the connection between the OD and Kobo account is not based on the email address. I think, but, have not tested, that if you sign into a new Kobo account on the device, and sign into your OD/Library account, the OD books will follow you to this account on the device.

Ah, I found the way to remove books to the archive in one fell swoop on my Forma — thanks for the tip as I had never explored that bulk-edit functionality before. That saved me lots and lots of time.
I may have to experiment with creating another Kobo account as you suggest and see if it does allow me to keep using my current Overdrive account. That would be the most elegant solution if it works.
Many thanks to everyone who contributed to helping me solve this problem. I've learned so much over the years from the knowledgeable folks in this forum. It's really increased my satisfaction with using my Kobo and also getting the most out of Calibre (still just scratching the surface there).
