If keeping invariable directory structure is the goal (even though it
should be possible to shuffle files among the directories without having
to retransfer the whole tree with hard links) in addition to be able to
determine the target directory without knowledge of directory layout as
Robin mentioned in another thread[1]:

then hashing is indeed a better option.
