I think they'd be well advised to have those labels on by default. The limited space for viewing the image can be frustrating

How cool would it have been to be Catherine, privileged to have such a custom-made creation, compact enough to hold in one's hand but a complete art collection nonetheless? My favorite among illuminated manuscripts -- though not a book of hours -- is King Rene's Book of Love (circa 1457) http://www.guice.org/bklvntr2.html Books of hours survived into the age of movable type, so not all are hand-lettered and unique, but you are certainly correct that those we value most were done earlier, by hand, in “publisher’s editions” of one each.
