Hmm. I think that Tom has in mind the reasons behind 511540d here.

Not much a fan of that per the lack of flexibility, but we have a
single function to avoid a huge performance impact when using
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, so we cannot really use a SQL-based logic
either...

WaitForLockersMultiple() is called three times in this case, but your
test case is waiting on a lock to be released for the old index which
REINDEX CONCURRENTLY would like to drop at the beginning of step 5, so
this should work reliably here.

Guess who is missing a 't' here.
pg_isolation_test_session_is_blocked() is not documented and it is
only used internally in the isolation test suite, so breaking its
compatibility should be fine in practice.. Now you are actually
changing it so as we get a more complex state of the blocked
session, so I think that we should use a different function name, and
a different function. Like pg_isolation_test_session_state?
