And as I reported, no, it did not.

I was using Sigil to edit the ePub and I seem to remember that Sigil and calibre's ebook-editor use different flavours of regex.

I've attached a screenshot of my Sigil find/replace/options. For calibre, you might want to visit Regex101 and see if it has any complaints about the regex differences.

Thank you again for your assistance with the editing. I have been referencing Regex101 which is going to take some time to learn and have dusted off an old version of Sigil. Considering the potential effect on the index, I decided to manually remove all visible instances of the offending numbers (586 of them!) without altering the existing code. Painstakingly tedious, but I now have a clean, beautifully formatted book with an intact index.

Thanks to your clear explanations, along with the before and after CSS, I've learned a great deal!
