Larsons problem is that even if he makes it available in non-DRM format later, I will not remember to keep looking for it. Sale lost.

Again, why should I have to make their product work on my reader? Imagine a tire dealer saying that you can ONLY use his tires if you modify YOUR car. I'll just go elsewhere.
Yeah, I know it isnt always the case, but it is for most books (hence the first part of the sentence you highlighted).

Call them.
Amazon Kindle customer service: 1-866-321-8851

Hellmark, do you have a Kindle? or Kindle app?
I don't have a Kindle, but I do use the kindle app for PC as well as the Android app.

And I was referring to them stating how it is a separate matter. If it was the case, and the two were nonexclusive, then how come there has not been found a single book with unlimited usage but still has DRM? I've not heard of one, nor has anyone else here
