No surpise - it's "atomically", not "automatically".
Which suggests to me that [[fileContents textStorage] string] isn't
returning an NSString. I can't find NSBigMutableString in the docs
either.
Any pointers on what's going on?
NSString ist a so-called class cluster, i.e. it's not a single class
but rater a wrapper around several "invisible" classes. Cocoa
automagically decides which class is best suited to store the data you
want to put into that NSString. NSBigMutableString is one of these
classes.
Normally you shouldn't much worry about that. For more info:

Contrary to popular opinion, the plural of 'anecdote' is not 'fact'.
