I think (I haven't checked, this is from distant memory) the PACKETBLOBS value 
is used for bitrate management - the vorbis encoder will do partial encodes 
of the data multiple times, then select between them.

I'm not sure quite what you're asking here. 

Is it: 
a) How are the floor points calculated (i.e. how do we fit line segments to 
the original data)? This is a pretty straightfoward line-fitting algorithm 
minimising local error in the fit.
or
b) How is the floor data calculated before the line fit and quantisation? This 
is very complex - this is where the psychoacoustic model comes in. A simple 
explanation would not suffice.
