I would point out that the new Sharing features in all likelihood involved removing code, even as they expanded the available options to include 'anti-social' sharing, which is to say, sharing with oneself. This will be welcome to anyone doing academic work that involves reading something they happen to get from Amazon, or for taking notes for writing reviews, etc. I would not be complaining about it.
After suffering many years of exceptionally bad typography in the iOS app, I'm for the time being content with the improvements they have made over the past year or so. It's far more consistent and much better than it used to be.
I agree that it is baffling that Amazon's ideas about margins in particular have not advanced over the years, but compared to the reading apps of Amazon's competition (Apple, Google, Kobo, Nook) there is little to envy in terms of having better presentation options (Play Books perhaps being the one exception).
Kindle also has exemplary support for iOS Accessibility features, equaled only by iBooks, and pretty much ignored by the other competitors.
