Ha well I dont think it was the mobi format that got Amazon to be #1, do you? Also I dont really condone something radical,dangerous or ill-thought out. How are your cassette tapes? Or your K1? Amazing they update the hardware, but not the format.

I think the epub format is a better (more versatile) format, yes. And I believe anyone with technical knowledge of each format will agree.

To me the point is that anyone who reads the same kindle book should be able to have the same page number, but instead you have K1 uses who are on location 1214-1233, K3 users who are on location 1216, and k3 users with calibre who are on page 84. Makes no sense.
