I do this with all my books and have not noticed any negative side effects of these epub to epub conversions.
I find that if the book has a lot of problems then Calibre's epub-->epub conversion makes things better, but if the book is basically good to start with then a conversion makes it worse. So for books where the only problems are the orphans/widows I would like to avoid a full conversion which can mess up the spacing between scenes and the font sizing.
