I know that ebook producers usually describe fallbacks for MOBI, so it degrades gracefully on older devices -- does calibre recognize the fallbacks kindlegen does? e.g. media queries...

For a professionally-published book, you want dual-MOBI so older Kindles automatically can read it, also Amazon checks to see if calibre created the KF8 and gets all mean.
