I hadn't thought to use CC as the selector and Moon+ Reader as just a reader, but now that you mention it CC seems very much set up to act as a selector. I prefer having it all in one app but this could also be a potential option.
It just changes the metadata of your calibre stored books. Personally I think it is better to update the files using polish as if you ever loose your calibre database because of corruption etc. You will loose most of the changes and have to restart when you re add the books.
