I am wondering whether some owners can confirm that 12th generation Kindles now use MTP for USB access. If so is it all of the new models?

The Scribe switched to MTP early on but still allows download and transfer. So MTP does not automatically preclude that option. It is more likely that Amazon is using the new generation as an excuse to discontinue a feature that is used more for DRM removal than out of necessity. They really want to have Kindles communicating with their servers regularly.
