And so right you are :)

The rewrite of bulkmarcimport.pl in K3 has introduced a more stringent
examination and rejection of malformed MARC records.

In previous version of Koha, we were not providing the field indicators.

In K3 we must provide these in the MARC records.

bulkmarcimport.pl could be updated to provide better error reporting ;)
