I've got my entire library of over 1000 ebooks in calibre. Not all of them have full metadata in the original files, but it is all complete in Calibre. I can save to disk from Calibre and then run mobi2oeb with full metadata preserved for Mobipocket Creator by just opening the opf file.

So I don't need it, but it is a convenience factor. I haven't found any significant differences in the regenerated mobi files after editing regardless of whether I use mobi2oeb or mobi2html (which, understand, I am not denigrating).
