Spare Cover Files Being Deleted - SOLVED

When I add a book, sometimes I don't like the cover so I'll Google to see if there is a cover I prefer. Until I make a final decision, I store the alternate cover (with an alternate name) in the same folder that has the original "cover.jpg".

I've just noticed a change in Calibre behavior. Don't know when it occurred, possibly with version 8.63 or 8.64:

If I Edit Metadata and change the book Title or Author for a book with a spare cover, the spare cover vanishes! It is gone from the book folder, not in the recycle bin, it is deleted ... gone ... cyberdust!

I could be having a "senior moment", but I'm 99% sure this is new behavior.
I'd appreciate it if someone could confirm that the same thing occurs in their Calibre Library.

Thanks!
