We can be less restrictive about pure data children than those with

metadata children differently from pure data children.

As explained in the code, the restrictions on metadata children are
strictly stricter than those for pure data children, so in theory we
just have to distinguish between pure-data and all other storage
children (pure metadata or data+metadata).  In practice, that is not
obvious, though, so we have two independent code paths for metadata and
for data children, and data+metadata children will go through both
(without the path for data children doing anything meaningful).
