You are right.
The problem has been already solved.
Calibre 3.16 no longer changes author case when importing a book with author with a different case (Charles DICKENS vs Charles Dickens).
You can import reading Metadata from e-book file or from filename.

Thank you Kovid

EDIT:
Obviously I do not worry about the health of my [bloody expensive] large SSD that much(*), when I did not notice when Calibre ceased to change the author case during import.

(*) not as much as at the beginning, anyway ;-)
I do keep an eye on usage
