Source ?

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.
