I think so. Even then you might want to filter/convert/edit it. IMO it's significant even Kobo only sends Kepub to Kobo ereaders (apps?) via direct WiFi. DRM free downloads from their site are epub and DRMed are ACSM tickets that deliver epub.

I used kepub for about a year via Calibre and now only use epub. Partly personal preference and partly avoiding proprietary extensions, but I think KFX is worse. Fortunately Amazon downloads via Browser are azw3 unless ancient mobi/azw only. I won't buy fixed layout Kindle, PDF or fixed layout epub3, because IMO those are print replica or files for print and not true ebooks. I also won't buy ebooks that are more than one column, no matter how it's done.
