Kind of agree the current title is a bit misleading.
I've never used any editing features in Preview (I mean it's called "preview" so...) and reading the title I thought this meant it was mangling files even by opening them which would have been super scary.
As for non-Acrobat software mangling PDFs after editing... Well that's much less surprising. I've even had Acrobat mangle stuff in PDFs after editing...

I suppose that's because after saving the old, correct data is still in memory, but I don't know exactly when the corruption happens – would surprise me if it wasn't upon saving, though.
