I agree that this code is very confusing overall, but would prefer to
wait on refactoring further until the two topics in flight (this and the
other pack-write topic) settle.
As shown in
https://lore.kernel.org/git/87v93bidhn.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/ I think
the best thing to do is neither of the narrow fixes you suggest, but to
more deeply untangle the whole mess around how we choose to write these
files & with what options. A lot of it is bit-twiddling back and forth
for no real reason.
Once we do that it becomes impossible to land in a mode where these
functions need to in principle deal with writing a "real" file and the
"verify" mode, which as noted in the linked E-Mail is the case now, we
just need/want these "is more than one set?" checks & assertions because
we've made the interface overly confusing/general.
