It's up to the book designer to design the NCX so it is usable. If they are throwing hundreds of TOC entries in there without any hierarchy, then that is what the user gets.

But by the same token, Amazon could improve the navigation by letting you interact with the scroll bar to jump to a specific location in a long list. Or have a button to 'collapse all' so you can shrink the list to top level only entries.

I believe it is possible to have more than one navlist defined. So you can have one for chapters, one for illustrations, etc.
