If there's a web page / blog that you visit regularly, it's possible to make a recipe (there's a lot that come with calibre) that can do all that automatically and do some pretty fancy automatic editing and even filter and inject missing images automatically.

You just didn't do enough research.

Also, web pages are messy, web designers like to find creative ways to make it difficult to read their pages offline. I think some of them break Pocket intentionally and they fill their pages with interactive stuff that looks terrible on an e-reader. All that stuff has to be cleaned out and handled separately for each web page. (Some of the simpler cleanup stuff is enough for maybe 60% of the web pages.)

How old are you, that you have no sense of time and for productivity?

The IMPORTANT information for customers, when it comes to HUGE PROBLEMS of the Kobo software, is just buried in fanboism.
