wal_consistency_checking is very useful in general. I find myself
using it fairly regularly.

That's probably why it's not finding anything now: most people working
on something that touches WAL already know that testing their patch
with wal_consistency_checking early is a good idea. Of course it also
wouldn't be a bad idea to have a BF animal for that, especially
because we already have BF animals that test things far more niche
than this.
