If you lose a disk and it takes /tmp out, sorry.

Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard? The presence of ANY files in /tmp
is not to be trusted - even if you created it ten seconds ago ...
This is not the same as /tmp becoming unusable at all.
As I wrote (and you cut), open files are not deleted and can still be
read and written to until they are closed. They are only unlinked from
the directory tree. It is actually rather common to unlink temporary
files just after opening them, so that they are deleted automatically
when they are closed.
