Looking further at the code, the driver updates core metadata as long as a book "is_sideloaded". That seems to be False if a book was originally purchased, which seems to be determined by the file path on the book. Or perhaps by something in the OPF. It is hard to tell.

That leads to the question: was this book originally purchased from Kobo? Was it downloaded from the Kobo store to the device?

If you are willing, we could get a lot of information about what is happening by running calibre in debug mode then connecting your L2 then posting that log. The Kobo driver prints reams of info about what books it is processing and what it is doing with the metadata.
