I prefer my explanaion, but if no one cares enough to test it., it can stay as a bug. I can work around it and will not ask you to waste your valuable time investigating....
* a book (version A) that no longer existed as a file in the library was delivered to a device that had been previously OFF, OFF since before the book was placed in the library, and had remained off while the book was edited from version A to version B
