It may be a differentiating factor, but the complaints indicated that it was an unpopular one. Nobody wants to be differentiated by having the products they are selling be more annoying than the competition.

Annoyance does not add to Amazon's unique value proposition.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are people who would have refused to buy outright because there was no opt-out but will now buy the new Fires and not opt-out.

The old "I wanted the option even though I wasn't going to use it," scenario.
