You are correct in that false positives are not limited to Windows Defender. However the complaints I've seen about calibre 3.27.x and Windows 10 have all involved Windows Defender/SmartScreen blocking the install. Perhaps a bit pedantic to say this is not detecting a virus however I feel it is a legitimate distinction.
