That's a good theory.  So I just looked through Foundation and found numerous 
other clases that only conform to NSCoding and not NSSecureCoding like 
NSAffineTransform, NSAttributedString, NSCharacterSet, etc.

I guess I should conclude that NSSecureCoding is not a general replacement for 
NSCoding and only really meant for XPC, and that Apple hasn't found much use 
for sending those kinds of objects between processes.

Cheers,
