And no, most users wouldn't care about more features. Even here on MR many don't care, as evidenced by people using Kobos interchangeably with other brands with fewer features or even preferring those other brands. And outside MR the average user is far less "nerdy".
Add to that that even here there’s a divide between folks who pick up the latest devices from kobo and those who don’t but still keep using older Kobos. Heck even the kobo arc forum occasionally gets some post and that’s a device well past its EoL.

I don’t really know what new feature kobo could add that would be a must buy for me. Color didn’t do it, and even if it matched current LCD color depth and range it’s unlikely it would have. I have no use for AI features which I doubt would work on side loaded content anyway. I suppose darker blacks and stronger whites since I read in dark mode so an increased contrast would be something I could appreciate.

I don’t think the redesign I suggested would even be something that would make me buy a new Kobo on its own.
