So I boiled this down to a much simpler case. I generated (many) BIN/CUE files with just one track and X frames full of data, then count how many units...

chdman leaves trailing garbage in the last hunk after the CD data

No it doesn't, the BIN/CUE gets rebuilt exactly like the input, with all the units that map to the actual CD track. The garbage is just in the "unused" area...

chdman leaves trailing garbage in the last hunk after the CD data

I'm operating under the assumption that the output of chdman is supposed to be deterministic (at least when not using compression). Meaning it is supposed to create bit-exact outputs no...

chdman leaves trailing garbage in the last hunk after the CD data

I still think there's a good argument to leave this as is, to avoid suddenly creating different but also-valid CHD files. It really seems consistent and deterministic behavior, not exposing...

chdman leaves trailing garbage in the last hunk after the CD data

I have since released a tool that creates uncompressed CHD files from a track describing DAT file which are bit exact .chd files to what chdman creates, given the same...
