A longer quote allows you to not go back and forth, and trust me it is much easier to navigate on a kindle than a kobo, because you can at a glance see what is the reference you want (or even see all of it!) rather than have to navigate back and forth to several.
And it is not even like the kobo quoting much less allows it to show more results per page. It shows 4/5 always including empty lines, kobo includes 3/4 snippets of several lines, with no wasted space.
You might think the search ability perfectly fine for your needs, and that is excellent, but for the way I use search, kindle search is so much better. I use search a lot, in case it was not obvious.
I prefer a lot of things on kobo, but it is worth pointing what it does badly (hopefully they will improve with feedback) even if in comparison to kindle.
