And yes, we know factually that changes (of several kinds, like the SRL) are made in the PW (Publishing Workflow). That's what happens after an author/publisher hits "save and publish" and before the book goes on sale.

but if it were device software then I'd expect all my amazon books to start self-hyphenating, not only the 4? that have been collectively identified to date in this thread?
on the confirmed list we have only tube riders, last mulligan, secret knowledge, gemini effect
I have 2 of those + the free sample of mulligan & can see nothing in the book code or CSS to account for this ( assuming that the calibre AZW editor uncompilies & gives a fair view of what is actually in there. )
and for amazon to say to the OP "yeah, we updated the device software & that's why", not " it must be something strange in your css "
OTOH , supporting your hypothesis is the fact that none of them hyphenate in Kindle for PC. Kindle Fire O/S did upgrade round about when this began, but I've seen nothing specific to say reader code updated also.
the mystery is
still out there
