Thats the problem, right there
What part of use only a local drive in the FAQ did you not understand?
G suite is the business version of Google drive with all the same calibre incompatibilities and issues
Search this forum for references to Google drive for the full horror story
And it will go wrong on Mac also, at some point. You have just been lucky so far.

There's no part I did not understand, but thanks for the passive aggressiveness.
I am quite aware what g suite's google drive file stream is, again thanks for letting me know something already clear in my earlier comment. I never doubted it is cloud storage; anyone reading my comment, having half an ounce of brain, can understand that.
Not going wrong on a mac until 'some point' being explained by 'luck' doesn't explain much.
After you're done with the attitude, here it goes again:
**I have my doubts since it works perfectly fine on the Mac with the exact same setup**
When something is an absolute, it doesn't have 'luck' working around the absolute. The original answer is stating an absolute; paraphrasing it: 'you cannot use a cloud storage service as library storage because it's the reason the problem is being created'. However, I do not meet that absolute in my experience using calibre on the mac with drive file stream as the library storage.
**Therefore** I am asking about any other possible explanation.
If you don't have an alternative one, then you're of no help to this issue.
Using a keyboard to burst out other issues you may have, of self-appreciation or lack thereof, again helps in no way, shape or form in answering the question.
I'm sure you're a big joy having around in any case, just not this one.
