Conversions follow the normal rules of conversions. I cannot think why anyone would think otherwise.

Your Thompson quote doesn't work...
Where I would disagree, or at least quibble, is that there's no UI indication that conversion options are sticky on a per-book basis. Yes, RTFM - but absent reading that particular paragraph, I would expect that the "normal rule of conversions" would be that my chosen preferences are followed.
