I'm happy to read this. Thank you.

I had refrained to chime in the discussion so far, because I was not
sure about how to articulate my point of view.

Now I think the point is, it is good practice that processes
responsible for creating/opening/locking a resource must be the same
responsible for deleting/closing/unlocking them.

If I manually create a file, it must be me to manually delete it when
I don't need it anymore. It must not be deleted as a side effect of
some other thing.  And no, saving a few keystrokes does not balance
this.

Cheers
P.
