It is an instruction of what to do now and is correct in that place. There is no inconsistency between these two as they are describing different actions.

The third come from the info on the new feature. It's an error. I'm pretty sure Kovid typed that from memory and got it wrong.

If you look at the preferences dialog most of the preferences that are similar to the one for downloading metadata are express in that way. "Adding books" or "Saving books to disk".

I looked. 6 of 21 Preferences are expressed in the way like "Adding books" etc.
From a plurality I would not want to talk here.

These read like "preferences when adding books". I would read the metadata one as "Metadata download preferences".

It would probably read a little better on the preferences dialog if this was "Downloading metadata".
