You should try it. It's a full featured epub editor. Calibre's library management system has no bearing on the abilities of the editor (other than being able to utilize relevant portions of the codebase). It is actively maintained and updated.

You're conflating issues. Amazon was known for rejecting some calibre-converted mobis and azw3s. That has zero bearing on epubs edited with calibre's editor. The editor has nothing to do with calibre's conversion pipeline.

I appreciate your dedication to Sigil, but your reluctance to use or recommend calibre's editor to edit epubs is based on unfounded fears/biases.
