This one makes more sense to me than the last, since "remove -f" already does something useful.

I wonder if somebody might assume from this that a single "-f" would override a lock. Perhaps not the end of the world, and the manpage does make it clear. And also I don't really know how to be more specific here without an overly long line.

I'm guessing all those thoughts went through your head before ending up here, too. :)
