I don't think so. Not in this case.
I think that we simply need to do format check when reading the index
and refuse to load it when something is off (malformed lists or values).

AFAIU, what you see can happen in peculiar situations when the file is
corrupted, but partially - Emacs is still able to `read' it into Elisp,
but the result of reading is garbage.
