But Alf's helpers have managed to keep up with most of the changes. And, of course, Amazon still delivers (almost all books) even back to the original Kindle, which retains its original per-device key DRM system.

I wish they'd all just realise it's a waste of time and money
I can testify to this. I don't own a Kindle so have to use Kindle for PC to access my ebooks there. After a forced update the tools don't always work. In my case, it appears something changes every January with Amazon and/or ADE because the tools are ineffective.
