I've been using the DeDRM Tools with Calibre and older versions of the Kindle app for years.... so does this method require something different? My understanding was that the DRM would be stripped so long as you import the book on the same machine it was downloaded on.

That was a pitfall for me at first, as I run a Dockerized instance of Calibre on my NAS, and the DeDRM Tools wouldn't work when I downloaded them to my Desktop and imported them from the NAS.
You did spend a lot of money just to be able to download new Kindle eBooks.
