I must admit that I don't know to what you are referring, so I have no
idea if you mean something that happens above the tree or is done within
the tree.  If within, "no reason" seems to ignore my previous email
about the time and space swamping effects of adding locking within the
tree.

I suppose that Judy might still perform "well enough, and better than
most/all competitors under the same circumstances," but I'm pretty sure
you'd see a huge performance loss (multiple times, like 3X or 5X).
