... yet I'd like to have subdirs inside each {authors} folder, but just in the case of series

e.g.:

Code:
Asimov/
  David Starr, Space Ranger
  The Currents of Space
  Biochemistry and Human Metabolism
  Foundation/
     1 - Foundation
     2 - Foundation and Empire
     3 - Second Foundation
  The Caves of Steel
I swear that I did read https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/template_lang.html,
and I tried a lot of variations on {authors}/{series_index:| - | - }/{pubdate} - {title}, but I'm still not there
Your authors directory is not going to work when you have a series where there are different authors. What you should do is a directory named for the series and then the books under there. And for books not in a series, a directory title Standalone and then the author directories under that.
