Incorrect. loaddata does use the ORM, but it uses raw save mode, which
disables custom save methods. Raw save mode also disables any database
field pre-handling, such as the auto_update_now triggers on a date
field.

This point is correct. Custom save methods aren't activated as part of
the loaddata process.
