Mobi to Epub repeats metadata

I am using version 0.7.35

If I convert an RTF file in Calibre to Mobi I can add the Metadata. If I then delete the RTF and later Convert the MOBI to Epub, I want the final file to show the new stylish panel and layout for the metadata, which it does admirably, but it retains the original Mobi version, thus it appears twice.

However, in the other direction this does not happen. If I convert a file from RTF to Epub and then to Mobi, only the Mobi style appears if "Insert metadata...." is ticked. Indeed, if I start with Epub, I can control whether the output has any metadata at all with that selection. But not so with MOBI, is this deliberate or am I missing something (again).
