Yes no surprise..
But if NSArchiver is indeed atomic I would think the saved file would
either be saved complete with new data or complete old data and not
with partial data in situations like an untimely crash or resource
loss. Unless I have the wrong expectation of atomic file writes,
which I thought was writing to a temp file and doing a rename at the
end to avoid partial state files at the destination.

You were doing it wrong, now you're doing it right, and your problem
went away. Seems like no surprise there!
