You're right in general. There may be cases though, where a temp file doesn't just get moved into [[`.git/annex/objects`|internals]]: e.g. when [[chunking]] is used along with parallel downloads, chunks might go into separate temp files before being merged. I was also thinking of use cases from [[todo/let_external_remotes_declare_support_for_named_pipes]], like [[todo/git-annex-cat]], where key contents is processed but not saved.
