However I notice that I can convert my files to the azw3 format using calibre. Is there any reason I should be doing so as compared to simply using the mobi format?

Thank you in advance.
AZW3 is the better format IF you start with a better format for a 'Just convert it" (eg EPUB, DOCX)

Convert to AZW3 so you can EDIT IT and make it better (adjust styles).
