I have to insist that for the purpose of uploading to the Mobileread library that the source EPUB in the combined mobi is bloat, especially if the epub version is also uploaded to the EPUB section of the library.

Please follow Doitsu's advice and use the -dont_append_source option.

The combined mobi is also convenient for people that want to email books to their kindles and also want to customize fonts. Amazon will mail the stripped out mobi or azw3 to the kindle dpending on which one it can handle. (I have never emailed anything to a kindle, so I don't know all the details.)
