I never go that far. I only remove/replace the things I know for sure would bother me - hard-coded body font family and font size (other than 1em), body margins, line-height, text indents other than 1em, spaces between ordinary paragraphs, ragged right, widows/orphans other than 1. And I strip out unused rules and styles, which is a one-click job in the Calibre editor. The rest I leave alone. I never even error check, unless one of my Kobos starts protesting (which is rare).
