OSFN (One size fits none) Calibre uses device drivers that allow different templates per device FAMILY. The plugboard allows by Device Family manipulation.

You need to identify which devices are your 'daily readers'
Which MUST use file System for access
Which can be tricked using the metadata plugboard

I only put the Index in front of the Title on my Kindle.
You can also manipulate the Author the same time

There is no single solution on any device that allows you to do everything, at anytime. Start by connecting the device: Right click the Device View Icon: Configure Driver. And see what it offers. Then figure out if the Metadata Plugboard will allow you to fudge in additional data to a field the device does use. (The SAVE template is only for File naming. and has little effect of Metadata based book shelf manager devices)

My Kobo does Series natively (you configure the driver once)
