Is that, perhaps, why you see the bigger .7 ratio?

I only used 600x800 (.75) because once upon a time the cover browser was optimized for 600x800 and having the covers set to this size increased the speed of the app when the cover browser was showing.

I agree.

Moon + also shows the last books opened by the app on a shelve on its home page. But since I use CC to launch my books it requires extra work to get back to the home page so I never see this area of Moon +.
In CC the books I'm reading are under the "To Be Read" tag so CC always shows the books I am currently reading when I open it because CC opens to the section I had selected when I last launched a book so I never found this to be an issue.
