That expectation was/is unfounded. In fact, I suspect you don't even expect it as often as you think. I think you just got yourself turned around by over-thinking your case. For example, do you expect -[NSApplication windows] to change? -[NSView subviews]? -[NSMutableDictionary allKeys]? -[NSWorkspace runningApplications]? My point is that it's totally common for a class to have a property of type NSArray* whose contents change over time. And you regularly use such properties without a second thought.
