It gets weirder still.

Without the author fix, it wasn't consistently splitting the books between the folders the same way each time.
The length of the path to a book is limited, especially in windows. If the "standard" path is too long, calibre will shorten it by removing characters from each path segment (author, title, book). Because the number of characters to remove depends on the length of the path, the resulting segments will vary from one to another.
