A) Why couldn't I set the width of a portrait image to 100 % as well? (And why is height a problem if given in %?)

B) My plan: Making a zip with all images, the css file and all the html files (one html file per image) ...
BUT ... Amazon states that ZIPS are only shown with the Kindle App ... is that to be ignored just like MOBI vs. EPUB?

A) because at full width, you’re more likely to exceed the height of the device for the portrait images, which I assume is undesirable. And as I mentioned before, you cannot target the device height like that. % of height only targets the height of the container, not the height of the screen; and you cannot target the height of the screen while preserving compatibility.

B) sorry, I am not familiar with that workflow; though it sounds rather close to just making an EPUB, so I would just do that.
