3) No sporadic firmware downloads or updates whatsoever.

I am using it on Wi-Fi nonstop because I enjoy SSH over Wi-Fi, so the USB-C port’s longevity is improved because I only use it for charging (I presume once a month, looking at current low drain).
I installed this extension (RenameOTABIN) and launched it through KUAL, then:
> Rename OTA binaries > "Rename"
then Kindle rebooted to splashscreen.

Is that the whole procedure? I can't find any other info.
Is there a way to make sure it worked?
