Close enough. The documentation for this is horribly vague. I made my VC
inherit UIViewControllerRestoration and implemented
viewControllerWithRestorationIdentifierPath:coder:, returning nil of the file
is no longer available. Where things get confusing is the whole
restorationClass property and how to implement it. I did what many suggest of
setting it to my VC's class in the init or viewDidLoad method. But if I do NOT
do that, everything still works correctly.
