What I'm missing in your & Chaley's discussion is the intended net result on the Kobo side: IAW what is Kobo supposed to show on its collections pages after using the templates? A screen dump would be helpful.

I know, you and Chaley can certainly dream in Python code and do have intimate knowledge about calibre's inner works: being a mere mortal, I cannot.
Assuming the output of the template is correct then you see the results as collections, similar to what you see if you put a column such as tags in the collections box. The template permits you to build collections that aren't in a column. For example I build collections for the first letter of an author's last name, "Authors: A", "Authors: B", etc. This saves me lots of scrolling on the author's page.
