To know what the manufacturers intended, I guess
you'd have to ask

your synth read and implemented the same spec.
it doesn't.. i have a copy. what it does do is to specify a broken design
in which only a timeout can determine if both the LSB and MSB are going to
be received, or just one of them.
What a lovely solution, combining awkward implementation and
additional latency! Makes me (once more) suspect they make that spec
hard to get because they're ashamed of it.
