It could be but the old kindles don't handle the new drm so they would bother many more users than a few that know about drm stuff (even a lot of user that are just using old kindle devices).
Also personally speaking I prefer to risk that they correct the drm in books where it shouldn't be there rather than risk that they never do it simply because no one goes to ask. The risk that they will tighten DRM on Download & Transfer is there even if nobody ask anything (they did tighten DRM on Kindle PC app even without anybody asking).
Anyway, mine was a suggestion, obviously everyone will choose what to do. On my side I have already reported and I hope that at least that problem will be fixed, even if it is not in their interest to do so.
In a few months, if the DRM is still there, I will remove my book from Amazon (I make a really low amount anyway, and I published it on itch so it's there for those who want to buy it).
