It's "bulletproof" in the sense that you'll get a lockout if two
processes are going to interfere with each other (in the wc). That
may not be the ideal result in all circumstances :-), but it will
prevent data corruption.

Whether two operations mutually lock each other out depends on what
they are; not all do. You can tag and diff at the same time, for
example.
