If by "looking pretty" you primarily meant the text layout (and not also the cover thumbnails on cover view) you can at least have both the syncing and fix those disgustingly huge spaces between the words ( in every line / row of text that couldn't have a long word split on a syllable) that are the worst thing about reading old mobi format by sending an epub with added soft hyphens (using Calibre built-in functionality for that or the "Hyphenate This" plugin) since then Amazon's PDOCs service will deliver an azw3 containing soft hyphens and the azw3 renderer on Kindle will hyphenate long words at the end of the rows.

You still don't get kerning and ligatures that you get with KFX format but at least there is the hyphenation.
