I have never experienced anything other than a corrupted file. I deleted and 
that was that. After finding out what caused it, I did not do it again. I 
suppose that depending on which point in a line it is not able to keep up with 
on-the-fly tokenization some interesting things might happen. 

The symptoms described by the OP, don’t match my experience with trying to load 
a .DO as a .BA. Other might have a different experience with this failure.

Not sure what you mean by "won't work correctly."


Attempting to inload a BA named file that is not properly tokenized will 
corrupt the RAM filesystem pointers so it can absolutely result in a cold 
start. Not reliably which is in a way worse... because you can limp along not 
realizing that your file system is broken. Eventually it will either cold start 
or you will have to cold start it yourself to cure the dysfunction.
