Unfortunately switching from mbox to maildir is not an option.
Btw. I don't see the solution. If the inbox is still /var/mail/<user> and is still group-owned by "mail", dovecot will still have the same problems cloning the group-permissions to ~/Maildir.
Because you've overlooked, at least removed, the Postfix configuration setting in the quoted part. When Dovecot's mail_location is set to 'maildir:~/Maildir' and Postfix's mailbox_command (for local users) points to Dovecot's deliver, all mails will be delivered via deliver into the INBOX from the mail_location setting.
The users INBOX would be still in /var/mail/<user>, if you would use Postfix's local daemon for local delivery and Dovecot's mail_location would be set to: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
