I have found that even single HTML files normally get stored as a zip.

What I have found is prone to be stored as a .htm file is ones that have slightly misformed HTML with something like a </BODY> or a <HTML> tag missing. A browser normally handles that OK so loading it into a browser does not show up this error, but Calibre's parser seems not to do so.
