Wait, so the locked suffix is to indicate that we need to take the lock
before we call it? I think that's the opposite to all(?) the naming
convention we have
Especially since the function name doesn't describe what the function
does anymore, but the context in which to call it. I'm sure if I was to
use it, I would have gotten it wrong, or at the very least been very
confused about it.
