The fact that you can download it is unsurprising. Amazon have a vested interest in making it easy for customers to update their devices. That is clearly a different concept than Amazing giving those font files away to the general public to be used as they see fit.

While an argument could be made that it's unlikely Amazon would take action against people doing this for personal use, consider that this font was clearly designed for Kindle customers, not Kobo users. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.
