It is counter-intuitive, but as this is indicating whether we need to
switch to byte IO, if we're already doing byte IO, then we don't need
to switch.

I think you're not reading the code very well. It checks for bytes at
offset 1..blocksize-1, blocksize+1..2*blocksize-1, etc are zero. It
does _not_ check that byte 0 or the byte at N*blocksize is zero - these
bytes are skipped. In other words, the first byte of each transfer can
be any value. The other bytes of the _entire_ ID must be zero.

The ID is 64 bytes long, and is fixed. block_size could be a non-power
of two, but that is highly unlikely. block_size will never be larger
than 16 either.
