Xcode doesn't like hard links?

I'm new to OS X and Xcode, so maybe this is old news, but am I wrong in thinking this is a bug?

Step 1. Edit a file in Xcode.
Step 2. Save the file.
Step 3. From a shell, make a hard link to the file.
Step 4. Edit the file some more.
Step 5. Try to save. Watch as Xcode says it can't.

You can Save As... and Xcode will overwrite the file just fine. Doing so, however, breaks the hard link.
