Can Library be switched from sort by 'Album Artist' to sort by 'Artist' only?

Sigh. 

We're going around in circles. In this thread, the_bertrum posted

Quote:I find that MP3TAG is actually pretty good at correcting situations where the wrong type of tag has been used.  It won't tell you your FLAC has ID3, but if you open such a file, then cut all the tags (ctrl+x) and then paste them back (ctrl+p) it will put it all back correctly.  ID3 tags become properly formatted for FLAC.

Does that mean a FLAC file does not have to have a FLAC header in its metadata, and it's OK for a FLAC file to have ID3 tags? 

All I want to do is have a music box that plays my music. 
I never wanted to have to re-tag my entire collection. 
I never wanted to take a deep dive down a music file metadata rabbit hole. 
But here I am. 
It's OK, I can deal with it. I'd just like to get a bit of definitive information so I can embark on the project with some confidence that I won't have to do it all over again in a couple of years. 

Oooh... I think I'll spin an LP. It's less stressful. Undecided
