It was always a Publisher / Author decision for mobi, azw3 and maybe PDF. It was Amazon that unilaterally decided that KFX would only work on Kindles / Amazon Apps and actually be encrypted. They claimed that it was "really DRM free" as the title with "no DRM" selected in publishing would work on ANY Kindle or Amazon App. That is misleading, because it's not DRM free if the encryption means it only works on the Amazon platform.
