Fair enough. Obviously, even in my use case, there could be a potential race
condition, so I suppose its use as an existence test can only be considered to
give historical information.

Might it be an idea when you remove that line to suggest in its place what
would be the best alternative to use? I think some people will be more likely
to follow the security advice if they are given an alternative!
