Note that in today's systemd the ESP is automounted on request, and unmounting when idle. This means that the FAT partition is generally unmounted, except when you actually invoke bootctl. This should make access pretty safe. (of course, this only works if the efi mount generator actually does its job, it's not in effect if you explicit mount something else into /boot).
