Sounds like a reasonable improvement of readability.

I personally do not mind this one.  It is crystal clear from the
patch text: "We used to use only one and managed to get away without
blob1/blob2 but now we use more than 1, so let's use names with
number suffix".  On the other hand, a "preparatory patch" that
renames blob to blob_file1 before we need the second one is a noise.

The latter clean-up to make sure we won't notice Git failure outside
test_expect_* block may make sense, but I do not know if we want to
make it a preparatory clean-up or "remember to do so later when the
dust settles".  If this single-patch topic needs to touch only a
small part of the existing test to do its job, and such a clean-up
ends up touching far wider parts of the script, then I would say we
can do so as a post-patch clean-up, not as a part of the topic.

Thanks for a careful review, again.
