but if I connect, select book, long press to download, then both formats get placed in the same folder, and CC shows only one book entry. in my test, both formats went to my epub folder ( maybe because that was 1st on list) & nothing went to kindle books folder,
all of this is via connect to content server.
is that latter behavior ( both formats placed in same tablet folder) by design?
I would have expected the long press download to send each format to the appropriate folder as defined in settings ?

Long-press will download only the "preferred" format, the first one in the folders list that exists on the server. It does not download multiple formats.
To test this, I deleted both formats for a book off my device (.mobi and .epub). I then went to the content server and found that book, then looked at book details. I saw both formats available for download. I closed book details and long-pressed on the book. When the download was finished I looked at book details again and saw that CC thought the .epub was on my device. I used a file manager and saw that there were no .mobi files in the epub's folder and no .mobi files in /kindle. Finally, I went to book details and asked CC to download the .mobi. It appeared in /kindle.
Regarding your edit: it is possible to download multiple formats, but not with the long-press.
