Whatever may or may not be going on in the depths of code, I strongly suspect that the two formats would render identically, if books were displayed side by side on devices set to same fonts, margins etc and with same screen size.

So there's no way that a reader can deduce "this one has gone through a (correctly specified) calibre conversion, that one has not..."
Lossy seems entirely the wrong adjective here. imlying that one format is somehow better than the other.
