they are your custom settings and Library Location(s).
Deletion of that folder, will require you to supply the Library location at re-install, as well as install any user plugins you had, as well as their configration.
Basically this folder contains the Per User configuration (as opposed to the Per Library configuration, which is stored some place in the Library folder)

I can understand that idea for update purposes, it means you don't have to setup the program again.
However not from the point of view for someone wanting to uninstall calibre because they don't want to use it anymore.
Leaving a load of "orphaned" files & folders behind is bad news !
A choice of updating calibre or permanently uninstalling calibre would be a better idea.
