Interesting question
I think it depends on your duplicate handling when adding.
Overwrite/Ignore: it will keep on adding the existing books, detect them as duplicates and effectively toss them away again. This goes on forever.
Create new record: adds the existing books to the existing library, which grows exponentially. This goes on until your disk space runs out.
Or does the autoadd not descend into subdirs? I don't remember. In that case, nothing happens, as there are no books in the top directory of a library.
I'm not going to try it
