I have submitted your question to my sister, who publishes ebooks professionally. She hasn't gone through the process herself, because her book distributor takes care of it. She has sent me this link though: https://www.writtenwordmedia.com/2016/06/22/amazon-kdp-publishing-make-book-free/ which confirms that it is not straightforward at all. Which would be an additional reason to avoid KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing). I find it unfortunate, that Amazon is so dominant, it works as a showcase just to promote and distribute books--even though they're made available elsewhere for free.
