So I seem to have discovered a good side effect of what I did. Running the plugin task seemed to have no effect. But afterward, all I had to do was go to any collection on the Clara and set the sort to Series, whereupon ALL collections were set to Series!

I just tried another power down and this time the Series order did stick. This is after it did not stick several times on two Claras.
OK, I know what is happening. In a lot of places, when you change a setting on a Kobo device, it gets stored for the current item, but also gets stored as the default for the next item you look at, if it doesn't already have that setting. That is what you are seeing. The plugin can set the default sort to "Date added" for each collection it changes and for the default.
