"My Clippings.txt" is simply a logfile, and it only records annotations on the device they are made, as they are made.


Using "My Clippings.txt" to get the annotations is a hack, but of course, the best we can do until/unless someone reverse-engineers the annotations files and figures out how to extract them from there.
Might be worth it, IF there was some way to match those notes to notes taken from other devices. (Then we could translate notes from device to device.)
Have you ever looked at the .mbp1 and .azw3(f|r) files? How easy it is to use them depends on the format. If they are some binary or encrypted format, that makes it hard. But, if they are text file of some sort, it should be possible. I'd be interested in looking at them, so if you or someone else wants to send me some examples, that would be good.
