I'm honestly not sure why you're arguing against a feature that can only be a boon to the consumer. There is no downside to having an SD slot. It's there if you ever need it, but if you don't you still have WiFi/3G/LTE. It's not as if the slot takes away any of the other features.

You are talking about a Kindle. The decision to not put an SD card in it is deliberate, not a cost saving. Would it attract more people to buy a Kindle? Sure, but not for the reasons Amazon wants. SD card is only useful for DRM free content so that it can be used for multiple devices - otherwise a large (e.g. 16 gb) internal storage would be fine.
