I'm sure there are others but that's the one I've been lately untangling so it springs first to mind.) Even using comments I haven't found a decent way to untangle that. Especially when I try to include the short stories in the collections.
Use custom columns to manage these unique situations.

I created a separate custom series column labeled Universe to order books across multiple series that are part of the same universe.
