I wonder if I can get Kobo to pay for a repair since it's their stupid firmware bricking my device. I didn't even need the new feature.

Don't worry about the power off screen. If the ereader is stuck on the boot screen, etc., you won't get the Power off screen. Just hold the power button for 20 or so seconds.
As for the manual factory reset procedure? I assume you are talking about the one located at
Manual reset your Kobo Sage, Kobo Libra 2, Kobo Forma or Kobo Libra H2O? Basically, the procedure amounts to:
- Plug your Libra 2 in to allow it to charge for 1 hour or more.
- Press and hold the power button until you see the Powered off screen or 20 seconds whichever comes first.
- Leave the power cord plugged in.
- Press and hold a page turn button.
- Continuing to hold the page turn button, press and hold the power button.
- Wait for the reset procedure to start and release both buttons.
