Exactly. **temporary** files are just that: temporary.
You don't expect them to be there after a reboot, or the next time your
program runs, or whatever.
If you want files to remain somewhere, you put them somewhere specific that is
**not** one of the tmp directories. And you name it such that there can be
multiple instances of it, such as
'/some-permanent-directory/my_program_errors-[PID-NUMBER]'
Any well-behaved program should destroy all of its temporary files after it
has finished with them.
That doesn't always happen. I'm looking at you GTK with your /tmp/gtk_errs
that might end up being owned by root, unable to be removed by non-root
users, and which causes GTK programs not owned by root to crash:
m70t [jvs] /home/jvs > gparted
bash: /tmp/gtk_errs: Permission denied
m70t [jvs] /home/jvs >
Regards.

She asked "How do you know?"
"You live next door." I replied.
