Yup. Quite possibly. But when all is said and done, it just seems too daft to let the grumpy ancient kindlers inhibit what kinds of books that can be (commercially) published.
I did think about adding a mobi-only disclaimer on the title page saying something like "sorry, your reader isn't quite up to this book."
Best solution would of course be if Amazon allowed authors to deselect support for mobi on the sales page.
