Ahh, because block is 1-indexed when we enter, so have to switch base
and then calculate the global number, like:

  block = block - 1 + (master * PER_MASTER) + 7

but we cancel out the subtraction. I agree that this looks correct then.

I would prefer less of a mixture between 0-indexing and 1-indexing, but
I don't have any good ideas on how to restructure it to make it better.
