Personally I hate that sonarr is stuck on thetvdb when plex/jellyfin both primarily use tmdb. Usually it's fine but for certain shows the differences can be unreconcilable.
I've been eyeballing https://github.com/maxdorninger/MediaManager but haven't gotten around to it yet
Maybe it is a necessary evil...
I always get into problems with old shows/anime when I stick with Plex's tmdb... If I switch to tvdb all my issues are gone.
Personally I prefer my software to give me options, I hate when stuff like this is picked for me when equally valid options exist
