When I was originally trying to figure this out, I tested it both ways:

First I did a clean install of 1.25.2 on a new user account on my Mac. I was able to get Alf-friendly KF8 using the workaround.

Then I deleted the K4Mac 1.25.2 app and the Kindle folder in Library > Application Support, so no trace of K4Mac. I then installed 1.23.1 and upgraded to 1.25.2. I got an Alf-friendly KF8 that way, too.

ETA: I also only tested this using standalone Alf as I don't use Calibre for Alf-itizing. Though it would be odd if it only worked using the standalone tools and not Calibre.
