I can imagine 2 possible scenarios
1. Amazon took this step towards non-support quietly, no formal announcement, just so they could see how many would complain and how loudly. Enough complaining and negative publicity and they could just bring the registration servers back on line without ever admitting to this being anything but a temporary glitch. Or if few complain, they carry on with eventually dropping mobi format support.
2. This wasn't actually planned. The registration servers just broke and Amazon decided not to invest any resources in fixing them. Or maybe no one left on staff even knows how to fix it.
