Books can have more than one order

Publication date (edition)
First Published date
Series: Indexed
Title
Author (sensitive to First listed if multiple)
Date(added to Calibre Library)

You can only Primary sort on ONE of these
additional levels bias the primary sort

Now toss into the mix, Kindles do not support Series Sorting
That is why the Plugboard exists
It modifies the metadata to fudge in stuff YOU want, like Series and Index While leaving the LIBRARY metadata intact

I have an azw3 plugboard the prefixes the title with {series}{series_index:0>5.2f| - | - |}{title}
