I get paid to fixup/update Public Domain (or CC-BY) ebooks all the time + combine chapters from various sources.
Example: I've done dozens of "Best of Topic X" compilations. And just a few weeks ago I worked on a book that combined articles written over 40+ years.
Of course, I regex everything into clean/sensible code (headings) + normalize everything within a book to be consistent... but if you're less meticulous about your code...
