It is undocumented but Amazon's track record with KOLL was that they kept the payout constant. Month to month.
And if they reduce it too much, authors will pull out. Many did during the switch in payout algorithms. It's not like the Select contracts last life+70 or require legal court battles to pull out.

Doesn't the fact that they can (and have) change the payout algorithms entirely at their own discretion and the fact that the "formula" is undocumented make it arbitrary (by default).
I'm not saying KU is a bad thing as it stands, just that this is the most worrying thing about it.
