I created a separate NSManagedObjectContext on a separate thread to perform some store maintenance. However, I have noticed that the context returns YES for hasChanges as soon as a managed object in it is even referenced e.g.

NSString *name = managedObject.name;

This context is created and used exclusively in 1 method. Why is it returning has changes, when there there are none?
