I unzipped the epub, and the relevant file is indeed present both as an entry in the content.opf file (in the <manifest> section):

You should not need to change a valid ePub before converting it to Mobi format. This does sound like a genuine bug.
Run the ePub (assuming it's copyright) through a scrambler, e.g.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267998 and post it either here or in a bug report.
I think Kovid has mis-read your report as a complaint that the CSS file isn't in the converted Mobi file.
