It doesn't matter what makes sense to me personally. Calibre has a very strict file/folder structure and it's not user configurable. I.e. you can of course configure it, no one's stopping you, but in doing so you'll mess up your library database.

Many people have made this mistake and usually they notice it when their library is already beyond saving. Then they'll have to start from scratch.

If you want to keep your books in separate folders based on genres, tags or even alphabetically, the only way to do it with calibre is to create separate physical libraries (using the GUI, not manually).
