FWIW I've been running a jailbroken PW5 for a few years now always connected to the internet without any issues dealing with updates.

I did rename the ota binary. I'm aware that there's always the possibility of Amazon maybe having some other way to push an update, but I haven't had any issues so far.

Good for you, but you can't count on buying a new device and having it be jailbreakable. For someone deciding what to buy it's not a good option. It's also a lot of work and worrying over something you bought and paid for.
