Oh I get it now! You need the PID to crack the .azw files from Amazon and convert them to some other platform! It's now a DMCA circumvention tool due to having no legitimate usage anymore. You know, like back when you could enter the generated Kindle PID into fictionwise.com and get a nice legal DRM'd file that worked on your Kindle after fixing a header bit.

This is the best argument I have seen against KindlePID, and it might hold water if mobipocket.com was the only provider of MOBI DRM (since they refuse to honor Kindle PIDs). OverDrive is a major supplier of DRMed MOBIs and they do accept the Kindle PID. So KindleFIX on OverDrive MOBIs is a non-infringing use for KindlePID.
