Just like columns built from other columns, CC's metadata will get corrected on the next connect as a wireless device.
Strictly alphabetic is wrong to me, so I wouldn't change it. There's not a way to have a CC setting to choose which way you want? If I look in titles, they are not strictly alphabetic using Cloud.
