I retain the original_epub as an archive.
I have found sometimes that I decide that I had removed too much formatting, or I simply want to see how the epub looked originally. In that case, I still have the original file to use.
But regardless of my intentions, I only wanted to know if there was a setting so I could skip the process of moving the original_epub file manually.
The calibre convert menu allows you to choose which file you want to convert from and does not tell you it will use original_EPUB. It only specifies EPUB, so logically I thought it would use the EPUB that I had edited.
