Exactly, so double-huh?

URGH. Wolfie is being very pedantic. HOWEVER, that being said, what he's said--although narrow--is correct.
He's taking you
literally in his own, personal-to-him-only specific definition of "MOBI." He is
deliberately construing you to mean that
you are building a KF7-style ONLY mobi. (Wolfie rather
notoriously persists on insisting that only KF7 "mobis" are MOBI, and that the newer, dual-style MOBI is "KF8" not MOBI. Thus, his comments to you.)
If that were true--which it would be,
if you used MOBIPocket,
CSS wouldn't work. The KF7 mobis didn't use CSS--at all. Not one smidgen. Everything had to be on the HTML tags, not in CSS.
Those of us who build MOBIs--the 2017 kind, not the 2009 kind--use media-queries
to address this issue in KF7 MOBI format, and of course, use the CSS to address the KF8 MOBI format--
both of which are included in the MOBI output file from KG/KPreviewer.
Does that clarify for you?
@Wolfie: Give it a rest, man.
Nobody else on the damned PLANET
uses your definition of "mobi" as =KF7. Not even me, and you know that I am very precise in that stuff. You know damned well you are saying this to confuse her just to try to win the argument. Stop
