The reason you can't send a "pure" KF8 file to the Cloud server is simply that it's not something it's designed to handle.
You can achieve the same thing with Calibre by changing the output format to "both" for mobi conversions and sending that to your Kindle cloud using either the Send to Kindle app or the built-in email in Calibre (I use Calibre's built-in email and it works like a charm)
