Thanks for the reactions!
All the files have correctly populated metadata, with the exception of about a tenth of them missing album artwork and genre. So the issue is not with identifying files in that have missing metadata, but identifying those in Musicbrainz that have perfectly matching metadata.
Regarding folder structure and hardlinks: good idea actually, but my issue is not with Jellyfin wrongly organizing my music. That is actually already fine, but I would like the style/genre fields + artwork to be pulled from Musicbrainz, as these two metadata fields are not always well documented, while the rest is perfect so no issue there.
Also, how could hardlinking files allow me to change their metadata? I thought that when hardlinking there is one file in two places. So to my understanding, it would not be possible to change the metadata of the file only in one of the locations (so both would have to be changed).
