What if JOSM used Multi GET? And only for relevant primitives? I.e.
primtives with id > 0 and modified=true or deleted=true. Would it be banned
too?

It's not feasible because it would be a very quick way for JOSM to get
itself banned if it started trying to download every single object in an
area individually like this.

If there data didn't come from the API then there can't be a conflict of
this sort as the objects would be new objects and therefore couldn't have
already been deleted on the server.

Recent versions of JOSM already report the detailed error message that the
server sends to the user - that should include details of the problem
object.
