The reading and writing are unrelated for those pieces.  The phones
do silly things and this sort of thing is normal (it is usually
unfinished bits of code, or two different people working on related
areas).

The important think to check is that the writing is actually succeeding
and data is appropriately updated.  I would recommend reading an
entry, changing every field in BitPim, writing back out, then reading
back in again.  Verify every field reads correctly with what was
written out.  Especially check the serials.

If that is all ok, then we are fine.
