Question: I have include_in_series:series,collections, and a include_metadata_pre on collections so that it only captures a few specific ones for fic swaps and the like.

I believe that pre means it captures before doing the replace_metadatas. So would it be better practice to do replace_metadata on collections itself?

EDIT: Another question: does include_metadata_pre or exclude_metadata_pre run first?

Example: Suppose I have this, so that selected collections are included if there's no series.

Code:
include_metadata_pre:
 collections=~(Collection 1|Collection 2)&&series!~^.*$
But then I also have this, to exclude "Some Series"

Code:
exclude_metadata_pre:
 series=~Some Series
If a book has both "Collection 1" and "Some Series," what should be the intended result?
