Interesting example - and it does look valid to me too. It would
probably make a good test case, since automatic conversion of
a string to a boolean may treat "0" (zero) as false.

I'm curious where the file came from, since not many tools output
line wrapped FASTQ (it makes parsing and indexing so much easier).
