My laziness. It's annoying to create different code for locking files via different ways in different places. (The files are created/written to in different ways, the locking can't simply be abstracted out into generic code. At least not too easily.) Of course the planned filesystem abstraction for v2.1/v3.0 should help with these problems in future.
