Perhaps because Calibre is designed for a desktop and it's possibly not best on a touch screen device. And it'd be nice to have something super-simple for my grandmother.
Also, wouldn't that mean hosting all of my books on my desktop and tablet simultaneously? With library corruption a real possibility.
When I suggest a Calibre OS I'm not thinking of a complete e-book library management system but rather a simple e-reader OS as you'd find on a Kindle or a Kobo.
