Hm.. really sorry about that. The current implementation is not really
ideal, you know.
When handles update it tries to recognize whether it block or not and in
fact it uses _root_ field to enforce uniqueness. There are few consequences:
 -  _root_ field spans whole block, not the parent one
 - current heuristic (block/not-block) is straightforward and doesn't
support flipping. Index is either blocked or it's not blocked. Your case is
opposite to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5211
as a workaround, before you send a block with id:66, send deleteQuery for
this id. Wiping the index also an option for sure!
Note, this might be an other intriguing approach
