Probably there were too many Kindles bricked by just installing official differential update, so they made 5.0.4 non-differential thus making all devices looking for latest update pick it instead of 5.0.3...

Perhaps you are correct. When I talked to the high-level techs at amazon, they were aware of all the kindles getting bricked by recent updates.
This update replaces a number of potentially damaged files with original copies, which in itself may "repair" some bricked kindles (if you can get the update onto the USB drive).
