No; NSTextField inherits that method from NSControl.
(It _contains_ an NSTextFieldCell, which inherits a method of the same name from NSCell. I know, controls vs. cells is confusing…)

Only thing I can guess is that you passed in a mutable attributed string and later changed its contents. If the control didn’t internally create and store a copy of the original string, this will change the string it contains behind its back.
