Another way to think about it is considering flushing an event notification mechanism. Doing the above can reliably induce tens of millisecs of latency in event delivery on the right combination of work items and flush patterns, which isn't acceptable. We sure still can fail to such state when the flush color space is exhausted but this is a lot easier to trigger.
