It's a one-time setup and no longer requires conversion. Granted, it's less of having eliminated a step and more like having shifted the workflow, now having to load into KOReader as the new "default" state if you ever have to reboot the device. I can put on a custom wallpaper. That you cannot do this without jailbreaking is largely also an ideological/philosophical issue, IMO. And, it's a fun icebreaker if another Kindle user in public walks by and sees a whacky wallpaper. Then, I can share my enthusiasm with hacking or tinkering with computers in general and sometimes that will carry into another line of conversation if everyone's in a conversing mood (of course, without pontificating or breaking out into a lecture about the evils of bigcorp, DRM, etc... I know some people are really bad about that). Not everyone wants to dump time into tinkering with their Kindle like that, I get it. And honestly, mine collects dust these days, as I find it more difficult to ramp up reading momentum with it, whereas I can more easily (and inadvertently) binge-read if I grab the smartphone thinking I'm just going to squeeze in a few paragraphs, even if the experience is worse.
