Setting my Mac to display hidden (dot) files shows the .kobo/kepub/ directory to be completely empty. When I first received the Libra 2 I sideloaded one book via Calibre to test it, and that book is the only book file I can find on the device.

Did you already set up the device first, i.e. log into your Kobo account? Once the Libra 2 I was playing with had been signed in to a Kobo account, the 52 previews disappeared and were replaced with kepubs tied to the Kobo account in question. They were only present when connecting the device to my PC while in “sideloaded” mode.
I think this has more to do with logging in to a Kobo account than it has to do with where the device was purchased.
