Those are just placeholders until you start using your device. If they persisted, then yeah, that would be crummy. But they do not last long. You are free to dislike them, but I'm hard pressed to take those complaints seriously.

They were subsequently replaced with my books (which is a weird decision IMO, when it simply acts like a shortcut to "my books", for which there is already a shortcut)...
The double My Books has to do with the history of the Kobo home screen. The four buttons at the very bottom are fairly new. Before those, My Books was a link hidden in a hamburger menu on the top left.

The My Books 'button' (and I do agree, it's just a big, fancy button) was handy. Now, it should probably be replaced by something else.
