"Save to disk in a single directory" - redundant?

Hi,
what's the difference between "Save to disk (S)" and "Save to disk in a single directory"?

Thanks.

Version (Ubuntu, GUI, localized): calibre 0.9.18+dfsg1-1bzr

"Save to disk" will create a hierarchical directory structure. Let's say you have a directory called books where you save the ebook files. If you use "save to disk," the files will be saved within author/title subdirectories. For instance:

~/books/Ernest Hemingway/The Sun Also Rises/The Sun Also Rises.epub

If you use "save to disk in a single directory," the files will be dumped into the books directory with no subdirectories:

~/books/The Sun Also Rises.epub
