Thank you davidfor, eschwartz, aleyx, and Kovid for explaining about Device View columns. I finally woke up late one night with lightbulb realization that all of the Device View columns are automatically calculated representations for those fields pertaining to books on device, presented after automatic calibre decision making per various contingencies. Collections being the only potential user-editable column in Device View, under certain conditions with some specific devices. Confused by the lookup names, I had been seeing the trees and not the forest.
