Programs don't magically become "smart". It takes time to add features. Old versions of the program don't have all the smarts that a prior version would have.
We're skeptical of your memory, because multiple different tools are telling us the data did not originate how you're saying it originated.

If you use cheat codes, don't assume they have no side effect. The game generates data according to patterns, because that's how the game code works. If your data does not follow a pattern, then obviously you did something outside the bounds of normal gameplay (cheats).
Again, programs don't become "smart" without effort. Nobody has documented, organized, and codified receivability restrictions for all games.
