In the situation of doing bulk adds where you have multiple formats for a book, some of which overlap with what you have in your library. I tend to add multiple formats as they may have come from different sources so one may be better to convert than the others. What the dialog only tells you is which titles it threw formats away for, not the formats that were duplicated.

So unless you do your books one by one and take note of what formats you had before you added, it is not easy to tell which formats need the manual investigation step to re-add/merge.

Basically it is a mess, and yes sticking to only a single format like EPUB as you do avoids it nicely if your EPUB sources are good enough
