yes, Alexa is also a not-removable built-in system app, but enabling parental controls completely disables it.

the OPs list of " feature I want" does not have any amazon-specific entries, which is why I queries getting an amazon device vs getting a real android one

one he did not mention though, is amazon's clever "guided view" in Kindle, for comics, that presents then one picture at a time, rather than 1 "page" at a time. that makes viewing on a smaller screen much more practical. I am not a big comics fan so I don't know if the kindle for android app also does that.
