Comment (by andraganescu):

 Random thought: I wonder if we should not assume that the block theme is
 the default kind of theme and check if the theme is a classic theme
 instead :) as in if not classic theme then it is a block theme. Is there
 something to check that a theme is definitely NOT a block theme?

 > how likely is it that a block theme's templates/index.html would be
 empty or have no single blocks/template parts?

 @costdev no idea but likely or not, for developers it's going to cause
 some stackoverflow searches because it is unexpected to require some
 random contents just to be able to start with the theme, and switch to it
 :D
