The blank page issue is (I think, or at least I can confirm it happens) to do with people sending fixed layout ePub to Send To Kindle. STK does not support this and sends 'failure' email.

You do get AZW3 fixed layout delivered to Kindles, and maybe it okay for some people, but it's not fully functional (no landscape, plus blank pages on at least some Kindles). The apps don't get fixed layout, it has font/margin adjustment so it is probably reflow able AZW3 which is not pretty.

And that's just for image only fixed layout ePub. Any with text is just gonna be a mess.

I would not expect this to get fixed with firmware update. And why would they fix Send To Kindle?
