I've never had to do that for epub output. I've only ever had to do it for either of the Palm OS pdb formats.

That proves that the source is using unicode not normally used:

Still ugly as homemade sin since the author/translator was likely not very comfortable in English but at least you can read the text.

I can understand why conversion to ASCII makes it readable. That is hiding the original disastrous formatting choice of unusual unicode.
