Despite that image check, we had some kindles behave this way with .bin files that were incomplete (too short).

As I recall, files inside the bin file get checked, but there is a problem if the bin file is truncated so that there are missing files. We discussed that somewhere earlier in this thread as I recall. And we discussed backing the bin files inside zip files for a total file integrity check (which is still pending) for that very reason.
