Well you may have figured that but it wasn't based on anything *Amazon* told you to expect...
I agree, Amazon is being shortsighted here, but it's their right (although whether or not kindlefix is illegal is another issue). The Kindle is still a very competitive ebook reader even if it can only read Amazon books and non-DRM mobi books.
