No, just saving the file is enough.

Good point: no.  If I start from the same place every time then it's
clearly not random, it always goes to the same places in the buffer.

Starting from emacs -Q, then C-h h:
- the first C-n moves to the Arabic character #x633 (point 256 of 3098)
- the next C-n moves to a comma (point 414 of 3098)
- the next C-n moves to Arabic character #x64a (point 759 of 3098)
- then to point 834 (Myanmar character), then 1557 (another comma), etc.
