Kristján Valur Jónsson added the comment:

Yes, any "blocking" on the internal lock is not semantic blocking due to the 
use of the Shared lock itself, but merely a technical aspect, not semantically 
visible to the program.  It is equivalent to the operating system pausing the 
thread, a techical detail opaque to the user program and somethign it cannot 
affect or influence.

"Blocking" in the sense of the lock is due to the semantic use of the lock 
itself and the resources that it protects.
