There is also the issue of race conditions with multiple simultaneous

multiple simultaneous writers; ZIP will also have race conditions for
concurrent readers/writers (as any new writer will have to overwrite
the central directory, making the zip file temporarily unavailable -
unless they copy it, in which case we are back to writer/writer
races).

Good point. OTOH the probability for this to happen actually is very small.
