Excellent question - one that I don't know the answer to. I did several Move tests, but no integrity tests. I didn't test all conditions I could think of, just those that convinced me it was safe and did what I wanted it to do. I remember thinking at the time that I wasn't sure whether a library "Move" operated at the directory or file level (directories = a "book"; files = a "format"), while the Check Database Integrity definitely checked files, so I suggested both.
