There are no formatted paragraph breaks when I view with Sigil -- just different CSS style for each of the first "no-indent" paragraphs.
Calibre adds indents to all the "no-indent" paragraphs when I use the "Remove spacing between paragraphs", stripping away the original first-line formatting intent. If I enable Heuristic Processing, checking off "delete blank lines between paragraphs" I still come up with the same results. The only way to convert the book to mobi in Calibre is to leave all these options open -- resulting with those darned small lines between paragraphs so prevalent with epubs.
Is there any workaround for this in Calibre? or just a bug I'll have to live with?

UPDATE: AFAIK Mobi does not use Style sheets.
Space between paragraphs are usually "blank lines"
Indent, is just that Indent. Look at the 'noindent" class in the stylesheet
text-indent: 0 (or, and this can be tricky depending on/if the styles Cascade: no line entry.)
