I was under the impression that he had used the calibre editor to create the ebook. As you advised, errorchecking before sending to iBooks is a good idea using both the F7 for a quick check and epubcheck for the final check.
I was quite happy to notice the F7 error check in calibre gives a named entities present error after correcting the "title= error.

iBooks is an epub3 variant and having the required XML automatically inserted rather that doing by hand? Worth having the plugin. Epub2 Output converts epub3 to epub2 which works quite well on the commercial epub3 ebooks I've used it on. And yes, I use epub3-itizer to do some of the grunt work when I convert epub2 to epub3.
I do use both Sigil and the calibre editor. For some tasks, I find Sigil to be the better tool, for others, calibre's editor.
