A couple of other considerations:

Internet Archive policy is to not alter content uploaded by and items created by users except at the uploader's request. Some of the items mentioned in the original post were uploaded by users of the archive.

Also, MARC records are used to populate the metadata as often as possible. At this point MARC records generally recognize volume and serial works as a single work and do not necessarily recognize each volume to have a unique MARC record. Often one record covers all the volumes.
