CC sends the date the book was last changed on the device to calibre. Calibre compares that date to the one for the book (actually the format) in the library. If the date of the format is newer, calibre sends the book.
There are several ways a format's date can be changed. Any of polish, modify epub, edit cover, or the editor can do it. Some plugins like fanfic do it.

The books that it did send now have no covers. I turned the option off and connected wirelessly again and it didn't resend the covers. All the tags still appear to be there though. The connect seemed to be too quick so I tried connecting again and it took a while before it came back and tried to send metadata for all 884 of my books. I then got a connection error in Calibre - CC thought I was still connected.

Hmmm... I probably have an order dependency when job is cancelled. I might update the cache even though the metadata was not sent to the device. This would result in what you are seeing.

I am going to restore my backup so I will send you the debug log before I do since I think it's stored where my backup will overwrite.

Thanks. I will look at it. However, I suspect that the problems with syncing, if there are indeed problems, are on the calibre side, in which case I actually need a calibre debug log.
EDIT: you did give me a calibre debug log. Excellent!
