This is also calibre's default template. The default template is used by the content server and cloud connections if no options are checked in Settings / File names.
If one were to have the book ID in the filename, then if the book were transferred to another Calibre library -- or if it were deleted in the library and re-added as a new book -- then it would fail to sync anymore with CC, right?

I have multiple Calibre libraries and do frequently transfer books among them. I also occasionally delete and re-add the book back to the same library.

So, given my habits, it appears I should not go with the new default. Up to now I have been using just the Title and Author, and it appears I should stick with that. (Note: I am very careful to avoid having identical titles in my libraries.)

Even given the simplicity of using just Title and Author, there appears to be various options in CC settings to achieve that? To be sure I have it set up optimally, can you recommend precise settings I should use for both Calibre and CC going forward to achieve consistent file names. Being able to sync bookmarks and reading positions across multiple devices with Moon Reader is important to me.
