That's only true if one intends to convert documents regularly. Kindle offers native support for 2 main formats, with one of those formats (mobi) not offering all the features of the other. Kobo does similarly with its 2 formats. There is no need to convert to kepub to read epubs.

Understandably, both vendors presume that their product will be consumed with DRM intact, so comparing the conversion of non-DRMd epubs or PDF (both of which can be read on Kobos without conversion) with De-DRMing and converting Kindle proprietary formats seems a bit like comparing apples and oranges. You can't send DRM protected content to your Kindle for conversion, can you?
