that is also valid.
use what ever workflow suits you.

I import book, run epub to epub conversion so that all the stuff I have in extra css and all the ticked filters get applied, and an original_epub gets created...
only then do i edit ( with sigil) , then I finish off with modify epub to clean up ( I have that set to not create yet another original file)

its very rare that i mess up an edit so badly that I need to recover a file, but if so, I usually realise immediately ( e.g. that a replace all has gone horribly wrong) , discard the edit in sigil and start over, or get the one from my last calibre library backup
