It doesn’t default to MOBI. It doesn’t change the format. You get MOBI out because that is what you are putting in.

That explains why you are getting MOBI format. The second generation Kindle is twelve years old and does not support any of the newer formats. If you download a book targeting that device you will get MOBI format even though the book is available in newer and better formats when delivered to a newer device. Much of the original book formatting provided by the publisher is lost in MOBI format. You would be far better off installing the Kindle for PC/Mac app and using that to download Kindle books.
