rcd-temp-file-directory ➜ "/home/data1/protected/tmp/"

Even files can be temporary files, not so? 

My temporary buffer with a buffer-file-name is considered temporary
because it is intended for short-term use and is typically deleted or
discarded after its purpose is served, regardless of whether it has a
file name or is stored in a designated temporary directory like
`rcd-temp-file-directory`.
