Seriously, we've been through this hundreds of times in the last 8 years; there is zero financial gain for Amazon in supporting consumer-side epub. And, considering their other advantages in ebook selling, it's actually good for competitors that they don't. If they started selling epub it would likely push theur already-dangerously high market share into near-monopoly range.

It's best to leave bad enough alone.

This is actually my position, as well.

As you say, exactly zero financial gain.

This will be the first year (out of 30) that there were not more Avacados than I could eat. Avacado and Cheese tends to squirt out the sided when you take a bite

You're doing it wrong.
Or using the wrong kind of bread.

I make several kinds of avocado salad sandwiches using Italian bread. Instead of cutting it lengthwise, you cut the end section and stuff it along the middle. It acts like a bread bowl.
No drip, no goo.

Lots of cookbooks have suitable recipes. Here's one, healthy and season appropriate:
