arrayWithContentsOfFile

I'm using this code to read an array from a plist:

NSArray *data = [NSArray arrayWithContentsOfFile:[NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"/Documents/file.plist"]];

The docs say this method returns nil when the file doesn't exist (precisely: "Returns nil if the file can’t be opened..."). But the above code gives me an empty array instead, which caused some confusion.

Surely the docs can't be wrong...
