If this is no longer a reasonable way to operate the device offline, thanks for highlighting it hopefully future readers will check these follow up posts.
I don't know about reasonable/unreasonable, but it is no longer necessary. (But good knowledge to keep available, in case Kobo decides to discontinue the equally unsupported sideloaded mode.). JSWolf's "lose everything" in this context equates to needing to do it again after a hypothetical firmware update, (which you have to install yourself,) and loosing your bookmarks. This problem has never occurred using the SQL statement discussed here, (regardless of the frantic claims to the contrary here.). But is always a possibility with the way Kobo reader operates, for a variety of reasons. (including, but not limited too, someone pressing the "Log out" button in the Kobo settins to see what happens.)

Currently, sideload mode is a much easier and overall better experience.
