Sure, they could remove the option. Would the big publishers and the authors who demand DRM still sell their books through Amazon? The publishers have used the threat of the removal of their books from the Kindle store as a hammer to get what they want before, they likely would again and Amazon would cave.
Besides as DRM agnostic as Amazon might be for books others sell in their Kindle store if I'm remembering correctly most (all?) titles published by Amazon
do have DRM (could be wrong on that).
