You get karma for making me laugh.

But what non-fatal errors are you talking about?

That's HTML Tidy. It's configured to preserve named entities and character references, but sometimes it just ignores that and does its own thing. Yeah. That's right. It's a lovely piece of code, that Tidy.

But really... everything in an epub is Unicode. There are things like & nbsp; that you want to see in the code, but other than those hard-to-distinguish characters, I really don't see the point of character references. So personally, I'm not that bothered by it.

And either way, an epub renderer doesn't care.
