As an experiment, try to create 1-byte file. Does it work on the filesystem in described state ?
I can create small files, as many as i have patience, maximum size of such "small file" is 14336, so. it seems that if file is no greater than (block_size-2048) it can be created. larger file cannot be created.
imho, fragmentation on filesystem should be very low, there were no deletions on it, just creations.
