Calibre is not a editor so as a rule it tries not to change the html. That said, so many people either
wanted no spaces between paragraphs or
wanted spaces between paragraphs that Kovid added those options. The result are sweeping changes if you use either option. It is not a matter of calibre handling removing line breaks properly, the program does certain things and hopes for the best.
You are correct, a well coded ebook will convert fine without either option set.
I love the fact the he supplied these simple options for all of us that don't want to get into the weeds.
I like having a certain font size, a standard indent and a space between my paragraphs. I also deal with some ebooks of questionable origin. Because of this I just default to having both options set. I check remove spaces between paragraph, set the indent to 1.1em, and set insert blank line to put the space back between the paragraphs.
