The whole concept that Calibre actually holds your books in its own database is a bit foreign to many first-time users.

The delete message is an example. At first, it's scary. It says it will permanently delete a book from your computer. That's true if you are using Calibre the way it was designed, but many users haven't even realized that Calibre made a copy of their book when they first encounter that message. They think the their source book will get deleted, not realizing that their source book isn't part of Calibre.
