Your 'plan' needs to consider that the Title and Author will be considered for duplicate detection

That led me to put the cover Title and Issue into Calibre's title block.
For Series, I use the Title-year (Analog-1972), Series index becomes the issue (or lowest month for Analog's Double Issue. Don't you love exceptions

)
This allows a Search by Year that would not be east with the title field only.

Be aware that the Quality check plug-in will 'Find books with titles that have possible series info like hyphens/numerics '
