You could argue that they are both right. An epub is a single file, but under the covers it is a zip file containing multiple files. The html part is split into small chunks, typically less than 300k in size. If a html book is already split, then I believe that the split is maintained. If it is a single HTML file, en Calibre tries to detect the chapter breaks as canidate points for splitting the html.
