To me, that seems like a fault Kobo should be able to fix. If, for example, I had bought the book and ONLY had the Sage available to read it on, I'd be VERY annoyed, since so much of the book would quite literally be missing. I should not have to sideload a font in order to read a purchased kepub, I think. Of course, this is based on my presumption that the official apps download the same kepub that the Sage does. If that's not true, then all bets are off, I guess.

And just to make it CRYSTAL clear, to any who think otherwise, that the issue is font rendering, I've attached another set of screenshots showing that the problem is utterly unrelated to hyphenation.
I had a similar issue with a math textbook I bought. One of the few to actually use MathML. It worked fine in the Kobo desktop app and the iOS app but would not display correctly on my Aura One as equations had symbols missing. Kobo's resolution was just a refund which I took. Don't know if they ever fixed it for that book but I can't imagine it's a high volume seller either.
