No dispute about what "locked" vs. "unlocked" means.
The confusion seems to be that we're assuming that "unlocked"
implies "audio drift" which it does not. Anyone can prove this
by simply playing back any DV tape.
Note that your quote only speaks of "smooth transiton during
audio editing" as a benefit of "locked". No mention of drift.
In practice I have never encountered "unsmooth transitions"
during editing DV shots, and I've never heard of anyone here
who experienced such a thing either.
