Downgrading is accomplished by running a script, and AFAIK installing the hotfix is necessary in order to be able to run scripts at all, so this step cannot be skipped.
Then the easiest way to downgrade is through a
KUAL extension, which requires MRPI and KUAL to be installed. However there is also a scriptlet to do just that available on the Discord (see the invite link in HackerDude's signature in the first post of this thread). Scriptlets can be run directly from the Kindle library, and do not require installing KUAL or MRPI so if you go this route those steps could probably be skipped.

To completely remove the jailbreak you have to reinstall the official firmware you're downgrading to
twice, without running the hotfix between the installs. Just keep in mind that some files might be left over in the root of your Kindle - a reset does not reformat the storage.
