One of each kind would allow one "subtitle" track and one "caption" track,
which is what I meant in comment 1.

For "chapters", one chapter track is always enabled regardless of the "default"
attribute, so adding this doesn't seem useful.

For "descriptions", having an audio description track and a subtitle track
enabled at the same time seems highly unlikely to be a common use case, since
they are targetting basically mutually exclusive groups of people.

For "metadata", the only use case requires script, so you can just enable it
from script.
