I agree that normally I'd not export rtf/docx, that I'd edit the epub. But that's ebooks that are bought or from well known PD sites. This looks like a mess. I've occasionally exported/ converted seriously bad azw3 or epub to RTF or docX and then replaced all the body styles, redone headings and special non-chapter breaks etc. Once even stripped back to plain text it was so bad.
Putting it into a word processor never fixes the errors automatically. Manual reformatting the word doc styles in in this case. would help. It's just a less error prone way of making ebooks if you understand paragraph styles. They map 1:1 to CSS and there are never epub errors if a word processor document is done correctly. Of course GIGO applies. A badly done document will give a poor epub, though it will lack most of the errors this example has.
