I think you hit the nail on the head.
The reason the web browser is experimental, and will most likely always be experimental, is because using it on an e-ink device is garbage.
It's slow to render, slow to display, slow to recognize input.
This is highlighted by the fact that almost everyone has a lightning fast internet browser in their pocket, in the form of their phone.
The Kobo browser is a novelty, basically. Unless someone develops an e-ink technology that can match the responsiveness of a smartphone, I don't think Kobo will ever take web browsing seriously as a feature.
