I still don't understand why anyone with Word or LibreOffice Writer and Calibre would want to use Kindle Create. It seems very very limited.

Also bizarrely I've found uploading an epub2 to Amazon KDP from Calibre works best (I got test purchases for various model Kindles).

I make local AZW3/KF8, Dual mobis and old mobis from Calibre from ePub2 for local Kindles. These are either from docx from LibreOffice or mobi from Gutenberg with suitable conversions.
I don't know if it's ever been fixed, but when I did use Calibre to go from ePub to RTF, there were problems with the RTF. The RTF was valid, but the conversion wasn't fully correct. The solution to that was to convert from ePub to HTML and load that. into Word.
