For a FAT32 device, there is no need to eject using OS tools. Windows and Mac both write to a removable FAT32 volume in such a way that only unplugging during a write would be an issue.
Also, are there really that many people who plug their Kindle into their computer to sideload books? The answer for people reading this post is "yes", but for the vast majority of people...I'd say "no". So, it's quite obvious this is not about convenience or safety, but rather another way to lock the Kindle down.
