This behaviour is clearly not intentional! It they wanted to prevent support of azw3 they should simply delete/hide them.

btw: In Calibre it takes me 6 clicks to send my azw3 books to the kindle as mobi (send droptown, selected format, click on mobi, send, yes convert, ok) then I'm left with mobi files in my library to delete. Is there a single click "send this file as mobi then delete the mobi" option I'm missing? (I'm assuming mobi is better than epub on the kindle...not that there's even an option for epub it seems, other than going to the convert books menu).
Mobi is meh! at best.
