Yes, I created it by the standard "Modified date" column. I expected it to read the date, not the time - I'm just wondering if it has an internal hour & Minute as well - I don't necessarily need to display the actual time modified, but was puzzled that it did not "move" books to the top of the descended sort column when I changed them - instead putting them somewhere in the middle of the column.

And I just figured out what it was doing. It was sorting by Date, then by Author. My confusion was because I had clicked on the "modified date" column twice - once to choose the column, then again to change to sort-descending. On other columns, like the "date" column, this stopped any secondary sort of the books, and left them sorted by pure date - but the "date" column would put the latest -added books (unless the date was changed by the opf file) at the top of the column, followed downward by previously added books every time, as though the "date" had an internal "hour & Min" that it could refine the sort by.

No matter how many times I click on the "modified date" column, it always retains the secondary sort. I tested with an Author/modified date, and Size/modified date.

Perhaps an hour-Minute could be added to the last_modified? It might not matter to enough people to warrant the change, and if not, I can work around it.
