It had nothing to do with calibre's open with -- it was because there were lots of users that were confused by the new open with functionality in *windows 8+* they did not know how to get windows to open files with a program that does not appear in the initial list you get when you choose open with.

Before implementing this, I would get lots of bug reports/messages from uses asking how to open some ebook filetype with calibre or the calibre viewer from windows explorer on windows 8.
