Easier for whom?
These tools all have bugs: they choke on symlinks that point to
non-existent targets. There could be symlinks like that which have
nothing to do with Emacs's lock files. So from my POV we did those
tools a favor by exposing their bugs ;-) I see no reason to sweep
the bugs of those packages under the carpet so as to make it easier
for their developers to keep those bugs.
