You did read that he loaded it to his Paperwhite from calibre? This made me wonder if the original may have been an Amazon purchase. One that was downloaded from Amazon and then converted to ePub. If he purchased it from Kobo, it would have synced to his Kobo and would not have required him to use the KTE driver.
OTOH, he also stated that when he used the KoboTouch driver, it was sending a .kepub.epub file to his Kobo. This would only happen if he already had a .kepub.epub in his library.
Oddly on my Sage, I do not notice any issue with opening either Year 3, Crisis Era or Year 208, Crisis Era which are ~400K files.
If I am correct and this ebook was originally from Amazon and he used calibre to convert it to ePub, the default settings would be having those files split so that is unlikely to be the issue.

Thanks for mentioning the KindleUnpack plugin. It will help me solve a different issue I have with a book that is originally in AZW3 format. But in this case, the original file is an EPUB file (exact same file you can download in the link above, the link will expire after 10 downloads btw).
When I load it to my Kindle PW it gets converted to KFX and it works fine. So I'm not loading an AZW3, untouched, on my Kindle. That same source EPUB file gets converted to a file ending in `.kepub.epub` thanks to KoboTouchExtended (I assume) when loading it to my Kobo Libra Colour.
I tried kepubify and it looks like that did it! However, I loaded the `.kepub.epub` file by copying it to the Kobo Libra Colour manually using the file explorer. I didn't use Calibre since I think the KoboTouchExtended plugin will always convert EPUBs itself. Also, I can't add the file as a separate format to Calibre since it ends in `.epub` so Calibre will replace my original (existing) EPUB file which I want to keep too.
However, I'm confused about this part:

I don't have a .kepub.epub file in my library. Doesn't KTE auto convert EPUBs to .kepub.epub files itself? That's why I see a different file extension in my Kobo without having anything stored in my Calibre library right?
