I'm pretty positive that, under those terms, one should not be allowed to claim for a replacement after having pried the device open and soldered the SP.
As for the rest, I wouldn't say that replacing any kindle one sends back for any reason is cost effective for them. It's more a market penetration thing. It won't last forever (even if, as a customer, I hope it will last as long as possible).

(Which also makes the sequence of item movements relevant.)

Yeah ok, this would materially prevent them to charge the fee on your CC, but you would still legally owe them the amount.
