The Colorsoft does not allow access to the /system/thumbnails folder, but I have not seen evidence that's true of the other 2004 Kindles (including 2004 Scribe). (On the other hand CO shows up a lot faster in calibre than Scribe because the directory listing calibre requests when connecting has significantly fewer files to gather up.)
And yes no D&T option (I think 2024 Scribe will not have one either, but it remains to be seen).

I don't know the specifics. I just know that I've read that MTP does not play nice with MacOS. All the 2024 Kindles use MTP.
You do not have access to the system directory. So the covers cannot be put on to fix things when you turn on WiFi and Amazon deletes your side-loaded covers.
D&T is gone for the 2024 Kindles and I would expect any future Kindles as well.
