Depending on what tool you use to "unpack" the mobi what you get can come from any of those 3 sources. If you are seeing a CSS file it is definitely not from (1)
Ummm, there is NO old mobi.

I take an epub with a media query; I ingest it into Kindle Previewer; it spits out a new mobi, that I can preview, load into a Kindle device, etc.

If I use the Kindle Unpack [Calibre plugin] to look inside that NEW mobi, it generates two folders:

mobi7
mobi8

mobi8 includes a BRAND NEW epub.

That BRAND NEW epub features a CSS that includes the "@media all" tag, etc. featured above.

Am I missing something?
