I don't understand why Amazon cares more about DRM than publishers do.

In this case, Amazon is likely being pushed by the publishers. As an example, almost as soon as it was announced the new KFX DRM had been cracked, Pearson pulled their etextbooks from Amazon. So far none of the ebooks that were pulled have returned which is likely not good for Amazon's trying to move into the etextbook market.

True. I will admit in the years I've been on MobileRead, very few threads have lasted that long before wandering off in new directions.
