Yay for the green Surface Pro! Also, I second your choice of ScribeCount. I'm not even wide, but I appreciate all the data in one easy-to-use place versus Zon's notoriously crappy dashboards. Here's hoping they incorporate ACX sales soon.
That said, I'm going to be following your wide journey closely. I had very high-minded thoughts about going wide early on, but ultimately chickened out and went KDP. Barring some catastrophe like the example in your post, I see myself rolling off older serious with dwindling page reads from KDP and placing them in the other retails.
The only thing that may pull me sooner is selling direct, which I absolutely love the idea of, but I don't have the back catalog to justify it (and won't for some time).
