Mobi doesn't support several formatting features that epub does, so converting to mobi would nuke those features and they cannot be easily put back. If the only original format is mobi, then it won't matter, but otherwise epub (if it's not a converted mobi, of course) is certainly preferable. (Yeah, I get that to you it probably wouldn't matter at all, with your sledgehammer approach to formatting
