Drat. Forgot about Collaboration, and should've thought to search the manual. Thanks, though!

Ah, so that sounds like "lock" in this case means "prevent anyone else from making an update while I work on this timeline", as opposed to "prevent any changes to the timeline, period".
It's been almost two years since I used the collaborative workflow, I could've sworn that it automatically locked other collaborators out without you having to check any boxes... no matter. I was hoping it was more, as you said, "prevent any changes to the timeline, period."
When I version, I shift-click the lock in the headers to keep Future Me from making any dumb mistakes. But it's a little hack-y, and I was hoping for a more global control to do basically the same thing, but would better communicate the message to other editors: "Don't Touch."
