All (the later) experiments before were done without unplugging the Kobo once, and maybe calibre had a problem with that.
That is at least one of the problems. The library on the device is built by processing the books the first time they are seen. If you change the metadata and resend the books, the device does not reread the books to update the library. You need to remove the book and then send them again for this to happen.

But, that doesn't explain the book you sent me. The author in that doesn't match what the plugboard should have done. I'm hoping that it was created while you were doing some experiments

I have a second plugboard for my PRS-T1, which works without problems, and I think (i.e., hope) that it doesn't collide with the Kobo plugboard.
So long as the plugboards are for different devices, then it should be OK.
