Ok, I agree that Amazon made a mess out of the .mobi file specs, but when their main conversion software saves a file with .mobi extension, I call it "mobi", even if does contain KF8.
However, my problem is still standing: when we offer our readers the option to buy a .mobi (+embedded KF8) version, everything is fine, whereas now that Amazon has officially discontinued .mobi support, forcing us to switch to ePub3 instead, there seems to be no way to allow Kindle Readers – even the most recent Paperwhite versions – to display any "Publisher font" correctly. Which is puzzling.
