The Kindle crowd is not going to make proper decisions based on what's best for them and they will end up in a cage built by Amazon. They won't know enough about DRM and they won't be stripping/converting. So if they someday decide to forgot the Kindle for a different reader, they won't be able to take their purchases with them. They will be locked in the Amazon cage.
So all the millions of Amazon customers don't know how to make correct decisions? And unfortunately they don't even know about the smart people who want to help them.
Maybe they are just enjoying the reading experience and ease of access to ebooks - they probably have not the slightest idea what you are talking about.
