As @davidfor mentions, this is due to keeping the maximum filename and path length below the operating system limits. Given that calibre supports multiple operating systems, it goes with the shortest limit of it's supported OSs. You don't see this truncation in the calibre GUI where the title and author would be viewed by most users and that mucking with filenames, deleting files, etc. in the calibre library from outside of calibre can and will result in database inconsistency, IMHO, it should not be of any real concern.
