If you want more detailed discussion, see the 2017 thread "Extended <head> chapter: NOT necessary?" (especially my post #43 plus surrounding posts discussing differences between <i> vs. <em>).
That was an interesting read. Thank you.

However, my main concern is getting a workflow that "just works" across KDP, Google Play Books, and iTunesConnect. Right now, from a speed perspective at least, <em> for emphasising words and <b> for bolding words is the quickest - for me.

I need to work within the currently accepted rules of whatever digital eBook store I want to sell on. And, as it currently stands, as valid as <I> is, it's not accepted in ePub 3 by every eBook retailer. Sadly.
