I definitely don't hold that against you. Hope you don't hold it against me that I'm in the United States. (Our government likes to stick their nose in other people's business.)

P.S. Incidentally, could you tell me if a Kindle 8 also has the same hyphenation issue (dividing some word at the end of lines) as the T3 model?

People used to complain about no hyphenation on the earlier Sonys. (I actually complain about a Nook Glowlight that no longer
supports hyphenation in the newer firmware.) But I don't think there is any way to turn hyphenation off on the Kindle (even if you choose "no justification" it still seems to hyphenate). I think if you don't use the justified text setting on a Kobo, it will turn hyphenation off. (I think that's what I read.) PocketBook
does have a specific hyphenation setting (off/on), so a PocketBook might be your best choice for no hyphenation. (Or maybe find another Sony PRS-T2 in newer condition?)
EDIT: Sirtel (see below) has pointed out that Kindles will
not use hyphenation when you're reading .mobi books so that might a good and simple solution with the Kindle 8.
I don't like the gaps in sentences, so I like hyphenation, but you're definitely not alone in your dislike of split words. I think every eReader company should do what PocketBook does, have a setting to turn it off or on.
