They do this so that both old Kindles with no AZW3 support and new ones both get the format they prefer. The dual form is never sent to the Kindle but is always stripped down to the one format that particular Kindle would prefer. Calibre has long supported this.
No doubt they will ditch Dual Mobi. AFAIK it's never worked for KDP. Send to Kindle is getting more like KDP now that web page has been added. No doubt they will limit to doc, docx, PDF and epub.
