I’ve seen evidence that compound actions suffer from [race conditions](https://community.glideapps.com/t/action-sequencing-blocking-or-non-blocking/19601).  
This is different, and of course I don’t know the answer, but my guess would be yes it’s possible.  
My understanding is that all these calculations happen client-side, so that probably makes it even more likely that a collision is possible. @Jeff_Hager, thoughts?
