Anyway I only answered to the software question about Kindle and Kobo without examining the reason why they invented KFX.
You can get hyphens for KF8 by Using Calibre to add soft hyphens. It works very well.

Another issue with KFX is that even if you have a font that compacts the line height, KFX is going to force it to be wider. That (IMHO) is not good.
