More like this:
"Doctor, doctor, when I pump my arm, turn my head like this, and say
the words 'klaatu barada nikto' I pass out on the floor!"
This isn't pain, it's a major malfunction. Any reasonable doctor would
immediately get this person some medical care. Likewise, this
NSKeyedArchiver behavior is a serious bug. You seem to be mixing up
the difficulty in provoking it with mildness in effect. It may only
happen in rare circumstances, but when it does happen, what happens is
very bad behavior.
