Some books also have a promotional first chapter of another book to entice you to buy, and I strip them out as well.
Yeah, same. I've even seen books with 3-4 promotional chapters.

Also weirdly you can have changes too big for Amazon to agree to let prior purchasers have new version, but same ASIN. Unlike Smashwords, Amazon never lets purchaser choose a later or original to download again and only enables an update for prior purchase on request of publisher, which Amazon reviews (must be only typo /grammar fixes, no change in content, except maybe adding a missing paragraph that doesn't change the story.)
