Differences between Mobipocket Creator and Calibre

With help from frabjous I've just converted an HTML file into a mobi file, and have noticed some differences between how Mobipocket Creator renders the file and Calibre renders the file.

In no particular order
- Calibre seems read and display HTML better - e.g. Mobipocket Creator does not show smallcaps while Calibre does
- Calibre accepts two classes applied to a tag, while Mobipocket Creator ignores them both
- Calibre does not indent the first word in a paragraph, while Mobipocket Creator does
- Caliber enforces full justification, which over rides the settings on my Cybook, while Mobipocket Creator does not.

Are these observations valid? Or is it just that it was the first file I've converted and I didn't do it right?

If the differences are real are there any others I should know about?

Regards, Alex
