Security is not simply about identity theft and credit card fraud. If connecting to the store servers is a security risk, connecting to the whispersync servers is as well.
I'm not saying that the security risk is the drastic issue Amazon wants us to believe it is. But if there were ANY risk; removing access to the Store servers while maintaining access to Whispersync servers certainly isn't going to do much to mitigate it.
