Just in case you have access to a kindle with jailbreak, it is possible to fake the firmware version running. (You would need to have updating disabled whenever wifi is on to prevent updating to some lower version than what is running.)

All that is needed to spoof the version is a simple change to /etc/version.txt

The thread is about actual firmware downgrade, but I have confirmed that with updating disabled, it works for getting azw3+azw6 instead of kfx over wifi. All the functionality of the actual running version continues to work.
