I can assure that I am not disagreeing with them about anything (as I am sure they will confirm shortly). I'm not entirely certain, to be honest, why you're having such a difficult time understanding the distinction between a cover PAGE and a cover IMAGE.

I'll try again.

ANY *.xhtml file intended (and semantically marked) as a cover PAGE should not be included in an epub you upload to KDP.

But that has nothing to do with a cover IMAGE being present (and properly marked as such and resolution-compliant per the Kindle Publishing Guidelines) in the epub--which is allowed and encouraged.
