Which of the following activities would you consider as editing an eBook?
  • Download metadata and covers and then embeds them in an eBook?
  • Delete the stylesheets?
  • Changes series information (say from Family Spies #1 to Valdemar:Family Spies #1?
  • Takes a text file and converts it to a ePub file?
  • Strips embedded fonts?
  • Converts eBook format (azw3 to ePub, Mobi to ePub, ePub to fb2, etc.)?

All of which can be done without using a editor.
To edit the eBook, it has to be done with the editor or Sigil. Yes, modify was a poor choice of words.
