This line of code appears to have been added to satisfy the 3rd example in VTB-EXT spec but that example has an incorrect HAP indicator decimal value so it cannot be trusted. Also, all 3 examples have an incorrect vertical refresh value as noted in parse-vtb-ext-block.cpp. The VESA DMT spec has the following examples that are not a multiple of 8 lines which support this change:

I did some more reading on this, and appendix D of the EDID 1.4 spec
says this (D-8):
"If calculated aspect ratio is not 16 : 10 AR, 4 : 3 AR, 5 : 4 AR or 16 : 9 AR
what timing description should be used?"
"Ref.: Section 3.9 (E-EDID Standard Release A, Revision 2)
The Standard Timings Identification code may not be used to
identify timings which do not match one of these standard aspect
ratios. Support for such timings must be indicated elsewhere,
e.g., by use of a Detailed Timing Descriptor."
So you are correct with your change, but I think it would make
sense to add a new check:
// See also Ref. D-8 in the EDID-1.4 spec
if (vact & 1)
warn("Standard Timing %ux%u has a dubious odd vertical resolution.\n", hact, vact);
So that way an attempt to use ST to describe 1360x768 will result in a warning.
