Same reason as with the spout, but differently. There is a much higher
likelihood that this will be used in a non-thread safe way. But it is less
likely that it will result in a tuple being counted improperly, unless multiple
threads are emitting tuples for the same tuple tree. It is unlikely, but still
not necessarily safe.
