Hello! I have a very silly question. What is the purpose of this plugin?

I ask because, from what I understand, my Kobo already has series metadata support. (My setup: Load books into Calibre -> Manually edit the Series metadata -> Wireless sync (+automated conversion to kepub) using calibre-web -> Books appear in the top "Series" tab under "My Books".)

Reading between the lines here, I see mention of plugging and unplugging Kobo devices. Does this mean that NickelSeries is intended for people who are sideloading books in a more traditional manner?

Thanks!
