I think buffered write is not a problem if followed by a call to

I'm not sure. The block layer might e.g. legitimately buffer blocks
in larger chunks.
Not for the input file in fill mode, and not for the output file with
the new --synchronous option of ddrescue 1.8-pre2.
I didn't mean the block buffering from ddrescue, but the block layer of
the OS kernel.
