I suppose the only scenario where it'd be a problem is if there were no back-link for some reason--but you should have a back-link, so you're right, kinda a non-issue.

I would point out that MOST ebook developers/formatters put a backlink in the footnote, in the superscripted note number, to return to the body text. About 50% of the readers (devices) out there don't have automatic "back" buttons, which is why you put the backlink in.
Offered FWIW. The entire discussion about converting books w/Calibre for personal use--e.g., using AZW3 or .mobi--is not something I can speak to, as we don't really work in that sphere; our work is commercial.
