So I thought no problem, I will do a "File Close" on a Sigil instance launched via Calibre, then drag/drop my book onto Sigil. Except Sigil had no File/Close, nor does it support such a drag/drop, as per the clarifying post by daubnet. So it had to be File Open and pasting paths between dialogs.

I guess it is just one of those things you learn to live with, like not being able to close "the last tab".
Somehow part of your program W7 registration got lost.
Did you un-tick all 3 choices at Sigil install time?

You should be able to Open With and select Sigil as a program to use for EPUB
There is a tick box to make it the default if that is your choice.
