It is all to easy to accidentally pause or even close the tracking of an revise and not notice it has happened. The Sense seems to be particular vulnerable to this. What can cause those? A coat sleeve or gloves, even the action of clapping your hands,  it can stop the exercise tracking and is very unsatisfactory.

 

A solution is needed to prevent this such as a PIN enabled lock of the physical button and the screen buttons to close or pause the exercise.

Bad news is that it's not currently planned so it's very unlikely the feature will become reality.

 

I haven't had issues with accidental button presses (contrary, I find it really difficut to press and rebooting my device is worse than chore) but touch screen usually acts weird in contact with water. This has been an issue for years yet Fitbit sees no need to implement screen/button lock. Funny that such screen lock has been added to swimming only (why not system-wide? That blows up my mind)
