Lending the ebook in the way we are talking about explicitly involves making an illegal copy, or else it could not happen.
The ebook analog to what you described would be making and keeping a pirated copy of an ebook for yourself, then later buying a Kindle copy and using the official Kindle lending mechanism to lend it to someone, and then only talking about the lending part.
You (and everyone else) can plainly see that's not what we're talking about.
