Though I do have many thousands of PDF that only have a numeric code unrelated to anything and used thumbnails of those in Explorer using an extension. Not needed now on Linux.

Because Calibre requires you to first off, have all your books in ITS library sorted how IT wants. Which I dislike. Second off if there are books that aren't necessarily something I'm currently reading or want in Calibre. But I want to browse for a cover rather then dealing with loading and deleting them or making a new library etc. It saves time. Finally. For things like comic books or children's books that you don't want cluttering up your Calibre library or only have for the sake of kids and don't want any of the Calibre features. Besides viewing covers. This solves that.
It's not about justifying why the program was made haha. I had reasons. People in this thread also had reasons. I just made it work how it should of worked all along. Now I'm sharing it for everyone!
