Really everything is a file is not justification to /proc directory mess at all. Yes /proc suffers from race conditions. Remember under proc its pid to directory. Unix everything as a file means that it should be PID to File not directory so /proc is a item that is technically wrong and you just raised it as a arguement against everything is a file.
