@Prestidigitweeze - I suspect its the Smarten Punctuation feature see calibre tips and tricks: ebook format conversion

Quote:
When this is selected before the conversion, all plain quotes, dashes and ellipsis are converted to their typographically correct equivalents. For example, plain quotes to curly quotes.
Smarten Punctuation is also a feature of Polish Books, the Modify Plugin and the Book Editor

I don't think you can turn off ellipsis transform without losing the others - ie its all or nothing.
