The bummer about this approach is that it won't check for overlap
of any extents past EOF which are unwritten (of which there could be many).
It's probably worth merging now just to take care of the false positives,
but I think it's leaving some potential corruptions undetected.
(corruptions which I'm not yet sure how to detect ...)
