I assume stupidity on the part of Amazon.

Oh I'm almost certain that this is stupidity, and not malice. (Why would amazon shut down an account of some regular person?)

However, the big problem is that "all the books you own" should be dependent on a massive company never acting stupid. The problem isn't stupidity/malice, the problem is that stupidity can have such a massive massive effect.

Well, the same thing could happen with physical books and a moving company acting stupid - may even be more likely. The difference is that you can sue them for damages in that case
