Some of those are due to a publisher having a corporate CSS stylesheet that is used for multiple ebooks. It's rather unlikely that any one ebook is going to use all the styles. Those I don't mind that much -- removing unused styles and then cleaning up the comments is easy enough.
What I do find objectionable is epub creation programs that place unused classes in the text files. Things like <body class="content"> where content is never defined, first-letter-? where first-letter-? is never defined.
