Don't return the Kindle to try and get one without bleeding in the lower left. I've now seen 5 Paperwhites in person beside my own, and they all have the same bleeding. You will notice it more or less depending on your reading circumstances and light setting.
No intention of returning that one, the light bleed is minimal and I don't notice it when I read - on the previous one it was horrendous though and very distracting.

Why should you leave Wifi off? I hope Amazon will not just decide to suddenly update and reboot your Kindle without you giving permission? If that would happen, I'd be *majorily* annoyed, and could lead to me selling the device after unbricking it.
They *do* push updates when the device is idle - I did a test yesterday on the PW I'm returning - left it go to sleep by itself with the WiFi on and within 10 minutes it had rebooted and been updated to 5.3.3. It's nothing new, it's the way Amazon makes thing "easy" for their customers

I normally keep the WiFi off, so makes no difference to me anyway

I hate it when manufacturers mess with my stuff (software, hardware) and update it without at least notifying me.
Then keep the WiFi off on your Kindle otherwise it will happen sooner or later.
