Somewhere my point/question is being missed...

Books published after January 3, 2023 can only be downloaded with the most recent version of K4PC.
Understood.

(For now) Books published prior to January 3, 2023 can be downloaded using K4PC 1.17 as AZW.
Understood.

Now my question, again:

It is assumed that Amazon will (eventually) kill K4PC 1.17 by blocking it from being able to download ANY books. IF that happens, then would it be fair to say that AZW as a format will be dead? At least for folks like me that do not own an actual Kindle? As in, if you use K4PC 1.19-1.26, you will get KFX, not AZW.
