Maybe that did it. There are properly hinted versions of Bookerly around if you look for them: any firmware new enough to have removed the hinting can use that as a custom font -- in AZW3/KFX, at least. MOBI doesn't do custom fonts, so you're still in trouble there.
If the issue is indeed Bookerly, then it's strange the OP couldn't use the Kindle 4, which has no Bookerly at all.

Anyway, the words "brain fog" remind me of something a poster with a form of dyslexia described - words and letters swimming/dancing before their eyes or becoming incomprehensible when they're tired. AFAIK the use of the right font, margins and line-spacing has helped in the case of dyslexia, but what exactly is right varies from person to person.
