It is true that the users can always choose to display the text with one of the default fonts instead, but after sideloading an ePub3 to a Kindle Reader there is no difference when switching from "Publisher font" to "Amazon Ember". This is clearly a problem with how the file was changed during the transfer or how the Kindle Reader recognizes the ePub3.
Hope to find a solution to this conundrum.

You are wrong. Mobi does not support embedded or side loaded fonts on a Kindle. What you are doing is creating a dual-format file that contains Mobi & KF8. The KF8 is what's displaying the embedded fonts. You are best to create a separate mobi and KF8 then a dual-format file. Most will look at it and think it's a Mobi.
Does your eBook work when the embedded fonts do not display? If so, dump the fonts as you have no way of getting them to work on an older Kindle.
