It is mostly about TIMING, so the only way I could see the current structure of Calibre 'playing nice', is to slow it way down.

Things have to happen in order. NAS/share operations are typically buffered at either end to make performance faster (but not necessarily as requested).

If you did ever peek (Never touch), you see 1 or more folders must be created when you add a book to calibre

Authors / Title (id) + OPF file + cover file / format(s) file
and the metadata DB entries

(I do not know the exact order, but obviously the folders need to be there to put something into them

. Buffering can delay one of those steps )
