I’m in the car on the road to nomansland, beyond internet. I’ll look in to this later.
Is there any chance that some file recovery software could be used to scan that partition for lost (as far as the filesytem knows) files? I haven’t had to recover data myself for quite awhile now so my knowledge is rusty, but if I recall correctly, as long as the disk sectors on which the data resides (or resided) isn’t overwritten, it’s still technically there.
I’ve frequently used testdisk https://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk with great success in recovering from “oops” situations. It’s in the Arch repos.

Sorry, I forgot about this but I think @2000 might have an answer in this thread.
