This debate has come full circle...
Amazon tries to prevent you from loading .awz3 files by blocking them from the sent-to-kindle email and app (which it appears you can get around by renaming the file extension .txt, but the point remains that they're actively trying to prevent you from sideloading .awz3 files). Why? Awz3 is the native format for Kindles. What motivation would they have to stop you?
This is why I believe @JSWolf might be on to something. He may not have it exactly right, but I suspect it has something to do with Amazons belief that only Amazon purchases are .awz3. They might believe that adding an non-purchased .awz4 is indicative of a bootleg.
