Do you really think I haven't had this conversation before, half a dozen times. With DOCX input it started years ago, with the start attribute on <ol> tags, which also epubcheck stupidly complains about. Then too people were trying to get me to dumb down calibre's output to suit epubcheck, I refused for the same reasons.

The *only* valid reason for me to dumb down calibre's output is if that output causes issues with a significant fraction of real world reading software. epubcheck simply isn't a reason I will ever do that. As I said in the FAQ, if this is a problem for you, then calibre is not the software for you.
