There's no evidence that the stand-alone Kindle method is in jeopardy... but then again, there was no advance knowledge when Amazon temporarily "broke" that very functionality with the 2.5 software update (pre-K3). The workaround to that particular change was a long time coming (and is, in fact, why so many got used to using the K4PC method in the first place).

But if history is any indication, changes to the DRM scheme (or just updates that break various aspects of the tools) for the various Kindle for * applications have been much more frequent and aggressive than the changes to the DRM scheme of files intended for the stand-alone devices themselves.

Who knows? Use what works for you until it doesn't work anymore.
