I have a book I bought at Sony that was kepub only when it transferred to Kobo. The books are different - the epub has the chapter headings as a clickable link and has the font specified as serif. The font size is also bigger in Calibre's viewer for the kepub.

So the books are different and there may be other differences in other books. If I don't know what they might change in a book I'd prefer to have the original.
