I used to always regenerate TOC, but with latest sigil I sometimes leave it mostly as-is, just edit as needed.

I find that many novels slip in occasional format changes e,g, for signs, diary/letter extracts, newspaper clippings ... to make than stand out from the general text, & I quite like those.

If, when reading, I see anything else that bugs me, I make a note of it using the reader notes facility then do an additional post-read edit. I do that also for annoying typos.
