I thought Calibre was not behaving as described bu it was just ignorance about how CSS files worked on my part. Unfortunately until I retire next year I have only limited time to spend acquiring such knowledge.

CSS is fairly easy, when you think of it as moving all that
long (repetitive) styling to a common place (the stylesheet) and using a
shortname instead
The
green, is my explanation and not to be included in a CSS as is.
Different calibre numbers may assigned for each conversion AND you can still use your own names in edits. Use a name (selector) i a document, then it should be in some linked CSS.
Code:
Make the first paragraph (used as a Sub title) after any H2: italic
h2 + p {
font-style: italic;
}
The standard document (body) style. You could change the name to body if there were no bony variants needed
.calibre {
display: block;
font-size: 1.2em;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 2pt;
margin-right: 16pt;
margin-top: 0;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
page-break-before: always
}
The standard NON-indented Paragraph style
.calibre2 {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
margin-top: 0.5em;
text-align: justify;
text-indent: 0
}
The standard indented Paragraph style
.calibre3 {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
margin-top: 0.5em;
text-align: justify;
text-indent: 2em
}
The advantage of this, 1 change in a CSS fixes all the usage
