It was an "experimental" product flag and many customers won't use experimental
product flags. We see similar push back on "diagnostic" product flags, but sometimes
customers are willing to _temporarily_ use a diagnostic flag in their production setups
to help us diagnose a failure that only happens in production.

I hope all this clarifies why I had to change LockingMode to a straight product flag.
