I use h3 because I like hierarchical TOC:Title, Part (if any), Chapter

Second, what are you looking for in the ncx? I really need to get more familiar with it.
I just defined the type TOC. Some think the Inline TOC is the controlling one. Sigil updates the NCX (guide section) from tags

Third, I also wonder why EPUB -> EPUB again after Sigil. I'm slowly figuring out what Calibre does with each setting during EPUB -> EPUB, but I'm still afraid I'll have something wrong and screw my Sigil work (not that I'm any expert in Sigil, but at least I'm pretty confident when I change something that I know what will happen, or I can undo it.) I'm less concerned now, as I can keep the ORIGINAL_EPUB, and not overwrite the EPUB, but I still feel that converting EPUB -> EPUB is a blunt tool as compared to an actual editor.
Agreed. I use Calibre convert as a pre-Edit process and leave my beautifully fine tuned work as the final result.
