In my opinion this closure is quite complex to understand and
therefore a little error prone. Could you extract it to one or more
additional functions to simplify it?

According to clippy write does not guarantee that the entire buffer is
written and you should use write_all instead. I am not 100% sure if
this is an issue here.
