It seems to be affecting side loaded ebooks, from what you are all saying, so there seems to be code looking for something, perhaps drm status, and then the ebook can't be opened back up.
Is this block also occurring with side loaded obok cleaned ebooks, or just ade cleaned epubs?

I highly doubt that. I see it with Baen and Tor ebooks, neither of which are DRMmed.
Not to mention that so far, the best way I can trigger the issue is to resend a book from calibre. In which case, even a book I am currently reading will pop up the DRM message. That will happen with books that had DRM removed, books that never had DRM and books that I created myself.
