Export to openZIM produced the best result. I read it

is applied by JS).
openZim uses HTML internally - and I would suppose that it uses MediaWiki to
generate that HTML. So the openZim export should give you pretty much the same
HTML you'd see on the web site.
Any problems with it would likely be problems with the reader. I don't know what
Kiwix uses to render HTML, but it seems likely that it doesn't suppot JS. And it
probably shouldn't, since things relyong on URL parameters, skin internals, etc,
would break anyway.
To me, applying important font changes with JS is simply the Wrong Thing to do.
All content should be readable without using JS.
