Ok, you either don't want to answer it, or you can't. Case closed.

I'm going to guess that Jellyfin doesn't support multiple tags to merge movies. Multiple tags will probably confuse it.
I think you're missing the point from what @TheDreadPirate shared. Are doing this to merge content? If not, go crazy with whatever bracket naming scheme you want. Jellyfin will not be using any of it to get metadata. Jellyfin uses ffmpeg to pull info like resolution and bitrate from the file. The only thing Jellyfin needs from the file name is the correct name of the show or movie.
