The Sigil EPUB gets converted again in Calibre, which further adjusts font sizes. (I found the "easiest" way by a lot of trial and error.) The inline (?) TOC holds up when doing it like this.
It seems you are saying that, if I want to use Calibre to convert an LRF to EPUB, the TOC (originally created in BD) should be eliminated.
How does the proper EPUB TOC you are talking about get created? In Sigil? In Calibre? I tried Calibre long ago with no success. Keep in mind, my HTM source is BD, which seems to put out somewhat unconventional code (from what I gather in these forums).

I use Sigil.
Set Heading levels, Open the TOC Editor (if not open, I use that to Quick Jump to the Item), Click Generate TOC button, adjust Tics to Hide items (remove the tic at the bottom will show hidden one as well, (Make note if the level is wrong), Save
Wash (edit ), Spin (repeat TOC), Hang out to dry (ship it)
