It does. The books in the library are not what the user sees or uses. That's why there is "Send to Device", "treat a directory(folder) as a device" and "Save to disk"
You can sort/organise and name the spreadsheet view of the library however you like.

Filenames when it comes to books or documents just need to be unique. They only need to be human readible when exported for something like KOReader that's like 1970s "management" as it doesn't use metadata browsing but OS filenames. Any decent Library view rather than simply a file viewer uses metadata in a database, not filenames.
