Kindle's renderer decided that the spaces and newlines between </p> and </div> are important, and they should be shown as margins.

Hmmmm... Good detective work.
But it definitely isn't normal.
And what happened if you removed that <div class="endnote">?
And are you using anything like a "CSS reset" (like Blitz)? (For more information on why that's a horrible idea in ebooks, see the
2021 thread: "Revolutionary code? Need feedback")

Oh. Well, if you wanted to stick with EPUB2, then you can't go wrong with the super basic:
Code:
<p>This is an example.<a href="#fn1" id="ft1">[1]</a></p>
<hr />
<p class="footnote"><a href="#ft1" id="fn1">[1]</a> An example footnote.</p>
It works everywhere on everything.
Heuristics should also detect that simple link back/forth, so you'd get popup footnotes across many readers.

That's a good one.
