But none of my Kindles (running 5.16.6) show Display Settings under Device options. Was that where it was with previous version?
In Scribe it's still in both menus. I just updated manually to 5.16.6 from 5.16.5, and double checked. In both versions the setting is in both menues. Under accessibility and under device options—display settings.

Btw, update instructions for updating manually are off on their site regarding Scribe:

1 Using a computer, download the file for your Kindle from Kindle E-Reader Software Updates.
2 Turn on your Kindle.
3 Connect your Kindle to your computer using the included charging cable.
4 Drag and drop the downloaded file from your computer onto the "Kindle" drive.
5 After the file has transferred successfully, eject the Kindle to disconnect your Kindle from your computer safely.
Note: For Kindle Scribe, use the Disconnect option displayed on screen.
6 Disconnect the charging cable from your Kindle and your computer.
7 On your Kindle home screen, tap the Menu icon, and then tap Settings.
8 Tap the Menu icon again, and then tap Update Your Kindle.
9 Tap OK to perform the update.
10 The message Your Kindle is Updating appears.
Up to 6. everything is ok, but there's no Menu icon on Scribes home screen, you need to go to more—settings, then tap three vertical spots for menu that has "update your kindle, restart, reset, and device info. It's also accessible from drop down menu, and going for 'all settings' there. I'd report it to them, but I've no idea where to find their customer support regarding this.
