The dictionaries are stored in /opt/amazon/dict. That folder has the two azw files and an xml configuration file. Rename the dict folder into dict.orig, and create a new dict folder, with that configuration file only. Then reboot the machine. Strangely, this hides completely the "Change Primary Dictionary" option.

Later edit: Since "removing" the two awz files from /opt/amazon/dict hides the "Change Primary Dictionary" option, it follows that renaming /opt/amazon/dict to .../dict.orig is sufficient, we do not need to have a valid .../dict folder with the .project file inside.
