And this regardless of my personal stance over my ownership of the ebooks I buy.

Amazon can do whatever they want with its DRM policy. They won't care about a small minority of us who won't access anymore their content.
Fair on them, fair on us not to buy from them something we have no use for.
But there are works on Amazon that are exclusive to Amazon.
If that's what you want then there's nothing you can do but shop there - Amazon has even taken care of that.
It's just not quite as convenient as on a special device unsuitable for Amazon.
I tried it and it works: reading a Kindle book on the Kobo Glo HD in the Cloud Reader
