My understanding is that the newest Kindle models use MTP and also do not allow D&T. The 2022 Kindle Scribe also uses MTP but does allow D&T.

My assumption is that MTP was introduced to prevent problems that occur when a user disconnects the USB cable without properly ejecting the device first. And that D&T was eliminated as part of an ongoing effort to remove it completely.
