Wait, wait ...
Are you saying that when you opt for the 70/30 split with all the "features", like they can match the price (even if it is zero) if they find your book discounted somewhere, they still only give you only 35% when you sell to me (non-USA customer)?
Let me tell you, it takes some balls to screw your suppliers *and* customers this way ...
I thought I have read the "small print" on Amazon rules very carefully, but this is news to me.

I am going to buy myself a bucket of popcorn maize, crank up my popcornmaker (that I got to roast my coffeebeans) and watch the titans clash.
