Increasingly, I am coming to the conclusion that it is a matter of interest only to Doubleday and Penguin/Random House, who don't use the KDP and who presumably have a whole set of issues that we don't have to worry about, just as they have privileges not available to us.

No offense, nj, but isn't this a mountain out of a molehill?
The reason it says "must include..." is because numerous publishers in the bigs FTP their files. They're not uploaded at the KDP.
However, that being said, it's of no moment to include a cover. We do it all the time. Obviously, we don't create it on an HTML "page" or file. If you don't include a cover, you'll incur an error using KG or KP-cum-KG. As you upload an ePUB, all of that is likely handled for you behind the scenes. And if you are
not including the cover--just out of curiosity--how are you indicating the cover in your NCX? Or are you simply assuming that Amazon handles that for you?
