Maybe you didn't understand me

I responded what you asked.
First at all, Amazon won't accept a .mobi file made with Calibre, so forget Calibre.
Second, you need only one good file, an .epub one. Build this .epub with Sigil and then convert it to .mobi with Kindlegen.
Third, your problems with .azk files (for iPad) is not due to the code you used but is a bug of Kindle Previewer (the last one v.2.92, more precisely). You can read about it in the Amazon Forum.
Fourth, you made a lot of tests but starting with your .xhtml file, not with "my" epub. You only would need:
A) .xhtml ---> Sigil ---> .epub
B) .xhtml ---> Sigil ---> .epub ---> kindlegen ---> .mobi
So I ask you:
1) How does it look that epub (that one you get in step A) in ADE (that is what matters, because ADE is the base of many ereader).
2) How does it look the .mobi file you got by using kindlegen/kindle previewer to convert that epub (what you get in step B).
And for now, you won't be able to test .mobi files in Kindle Previewer/Ipad devices (unless you have an old version of Kindle Previewer)

The epub you made with Sigil did not solve any problems in the file you started with - because there where no problems in that file.

In your first post you had said:
"For example, if I run my mobi file from Kindlegen trough Calibre to get an epub (i.e xhtml -> (kindlegen) -> mobi -> (calibre) -> epub), the title page is miniaturized."
So, how did you get the .epub you posted in first place? If you followed the steps you posted then that .epub, according to your words, should have title pages miniaturized. "My" epub, made with Sigil, doesn't have that issue.

7) your sigil epub -> (kindlegen) -> mobi -> (kindlegen) -> Kindle for iOS: Conversion fails, same as #4.

As I told you before, the code is ok, the problem is Kindle Previewer.
