Does it work if you try again (and again, and again, if need be)?
So far, no. Every time I've gone into the stock UI, I've had to reboot

Does your device used to have nested items at some point?
Nope. All collections go only one level deep

Does you devices has a mix of local & cloud collections (or cloud collections at all)?
Honestly, I'm not entirely sure how to answer that. Frankly, 99% of the books that have ever been on my Kindle have been obtained from non-Amazon sources and sideloaded either directly or via Caliber, and I typically keep wi-fi off, as I have little desire to sync, and keeping it off reduces sync issues that would be caused by having my wife's kindle on the same Amazon account. However, the majority of the collections on the Kindle were created using the stock interface, so I believe they are created as cloud collections by default, aren't they?
How can you tell what type a given collection is? And is there a reliable way to create collections that are local only? We've noticed that when I create collections on my PW2, the collection often gets transferred to my wife's if we both happen to turn on wi-fi, even though her kindle doesn't contain any of the items in the collection, so she ends up with a bunch of empty collections littering her UI. It's a pretty annoying behavior...
