I actually find your explanations and replies hard to follow, so it wasn't clear that all you were doing was reading "my clippings.txt", though it seems very slow to be only doing that. I thought you'd found access to something else asiIt's not even accurately copying what is there, compared with the Kindle DXG I had. I can't test it as I passed it on to someone with Macular Degeneration.
I hope to have an old 6" Kindle Keyboard soon to test mobi formating. Someone getting the current basic Kindle.
So anyway, I'm back to proofing people's texts on the Kobo as it's now at least usable again with combination of larger margin, line spacing and SD Card. Though poorer than when I bought it. Sadly though the Kindle is great for source selection and note typing compared to Kobo, the "my clippings.txt" is too limited lacking chapter & chapter %. Page numbers are a bit stupid on eBooks. The "location" might be good if it was something 100% reliable based on paragraph count. I've no idea what it is, except it's not affected by device screen, font size or page settings.
It's up to you what you change, but certainly it's needlessly repeating identical time stamps for note and source highlight, contrary to CSS preview and only putting location, not location range or page, at least I think so.
Maybe you need a friend with a Kindle PW3 or something using current FW to test.
I thought of writing a program to process "my clippings.txt"
Edit:
The "my clippings.txt" clip is newer than the Calibre import as it ends that book with

They are going to Emarineer sehortly
and the parts from Calibre are at the end.
However you can see the rather useless Page is missing (can be used I suppose on Kindle if no settings changed) and that locations for highlight can have a range.
