Assigning to a variable is atomic anyway. The lock is thus superfluous.

What's the issue we try to solve by removing the locks ?
To my knowledge, this is safe to remove on CPython due to GIL and that Python bytecode are atomic. I don't known if this fact is documented by Python / CPython. I'm not sure this hold for other Python implementation (PyPy, Jython...) and I'm also unsure Python recommend relying on bytecode being atomic.

This isn't a simple assignment. I'm unsure whether this is safe to remove the lock.
