Quite sensibly argued.  I do not necessarily see the current code as
"broken", and "fix" at the beginning of the next line may not be an
appropriate word to describe this enhancement, but I think it would
be nice to have such numbers.

Not an objection, but all the hits to existing calls to this
function show the data in a format as vanilla as possible without
frills (presumably to make it easier to mechanically parse the value
out when needed???), and the "round-" prefix we see here somehow
looks out of place.  Doesn't the fact that the record is in the
"negotiation_v0_v1" category and has label "round" clear enough sign
that the value presented is the negotiation_round?

Having many duplicated calls to "leave" makes the whole thing look
somewhat confused.  Is this primarily because we have too many
"break" that breaks out of the loop?

Hmph.  Doesn't this logically belong to the "FETCH_PROCESS_ACKS"
case arm?  We "leave" the current round when we did not get "ready"
and "enter" the next round by moving to "FETCH_SEND_REQUEST" state,
but at the same location when we did get "ready", we can "leave" the
current (and final) round and move to "FETCH_GET_PACK" state.  I
suspect the code structure and control flow becomes easier to see
when expressed that way.
