Later meaning outside the series, as 8/8 is not about that? Not a
complaint, and if the way I interpreted is correct, then there is no
need to update the above statement. Just double-checking.

OK.

Nice. !memchr(sb->buf, ch, sb->len) would be more general solution
if we were looking for ch that is not NUL, but for checking NUL,
what you wrote is the most natural to read.
