> the real device is just making up the disk block sizes anyway
Yes, in our case it would make up a block size of 8KB

> alignment according to the identify data is important 
No, only for HDDs not for SSDs; here the alignment needs to fit
the internal or exposed alignment of the SSD in order not to
ruin it by a 2x or 4x-ing of all read-write cycles

> this isn't particularly likely to change
Yes, folks of any chat channel are not aware of these issues.
