I assumed before progressing any further that a backup of the software on the device would be recommended in case the device gets bricked? Is this not necessary?

The only thing in the Amazon image that has been changed is the addition of our developer certificate to the set of update certificates.
(one small file added).
Everything else is being placed in the USB storage area that you see over the USB cable, same storage are used for all user additions.
The USB storage area is only a small part of the file system, you are asking about backing up that parts you can not see over the USB cable.
Ah, - - -
Other than the dev cert. we haven't changed the part you don't see
and
As you just found out - Amazon provides complete system image files for the Kpw(1)
Which amounts to what you are asking to back up - as if you didn't already have the original.
