Sorry, but I don't see the issue. Consistency of what? It seems that you are talking about the metadata in every format of a book being equal to the metadata in the DB for that book. If there are no books, then there isn't a problem.
My guess is that you have a particular work flow scenario in mind that I don't share.
As for replacing formats, use the command line calibredb add_format. Generate the script from the files in the save to disk hierarchy. To simplify things, put the book ID into the path somewhere.
