From what list would Amazon remove your address? Why would they do

I would hope that after some number of bounces a vendor would stop
sending email to that account, and at the very least, flag it for
attention of the user the next time they log in. In an ideal world
they'd send periodic confirmation requests--but they don't.
Does anyone have any facts there? I know that some sites ignore
them--I can offer easy proof of that in my bounce lists. But is that
standard practice? Can any of the C/R folks give their experiences?

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
