Oops. I just discovered that Scrivener doesn’t use the actual title of the Scriv project but whatever is entered on the Compile page—and that still showed the _20210418 title. So even though the title on the tablet saie _20220311, the epub readers were going by that “hidden” title—e.g., something from the metadata.
