Sorry, don't get your reasoning. What is fair or acceptable about over-pricing? Are you saying I should turn away and pretend it isn't happening, and that my money is endless?

Buy what works best for you. I'll do the same.

I do ..... fair priced ebooks.

It's rare when when I must have a certain book RIGHT NOW. My TBR pile is pretty high.

As is mine, but I do buy in advance when I can ... even as a pre-order if the price is fair.

I've never loaned a lot of my books...the people in my life who share reading interests are my mother, my husband, and a DIL. They all have devices or apps registered to my Amazon account. Nothing "bad boy" about it. I don't give drm stripped books out to friends. But the DRM issue is not particularly problematic for me.

Lucky you, but I guess you can appreciate that may not be the norm or a very high number at least, would like to share.
Even though I am in AUS, I had my Amazon account before the AUS store existed, which unlike current AUS accounts, means I can legally share with my wife. AUS accounts don't have the Family option last I looked ... one of the main reasons I haven't switched, despite their regular prompts to do so.

Books are not a living necessity. Neither is expensive salmon. That's my point there. (school needs don't count here)

Still no reason to accept being ripped off. Are you saying we should?
