I think you are right, but it's not obvious at first glance.

Their statement, by the way, says words to the effect that only Amazon can sell ebooks readable on Kindle. This is clearly wrong.

Before I retired I looked for ignorance before I looked for malice when things went wrong. Neither Edinburgh Books or Indieebook.co.uk have replied to me yet, so I don't think anyone can tell which one they are showing.
