NSFileVersion doesn't work in IOS simulator?

I have the following code - you can see where I had to comment out the code on the simulator. Is this expected? The code works perfectly fine on a physical iPad device. Is it documented somewhere that NSFileVersion doesn't work with non-local versions in the simulator?

   func loadPreviewDirectly(
        from version: NSFileVersion,
        completion: @escaping (CIImage?) -> Void
    ) {
        let versionURL = version.url
        let access = versionURL.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource()
        defer { if access { versionURL.stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource() } }

        print("Loading version: \(version.persistentIdentifier) | Local: \(version.hasLocalContents)")

        // 1. SIMULATOR CATCH: If running in simulator and the file is missing, it will never download.
#if targetEnvironment(simulator)
        if !version.hasLocalContents {
            print("⚠️ iOS Simulator cannot materialize remote NSFileVersions. Fallback triggered.")
            // You cannot test remote versions here. For testing on the simulator,
            // test with a version where version.hasLocalContents == true (created locally in this session).
            DispatchQueue.main.async { completion(nil) }
            return
        }
#endif

        let coordinator = NSFileCoordinator()
        var coordinationError: NSError?

        // 2. Wrap everything in a sequential reading coordination
        coordinator.coordinate(readingItemAt: versionURL, options: [], error: &coordinationError) { readURL in
            let image = CIImage(contentsOf: readURL)
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                completion(image)
            }
        }
        if let error = coordinationError {
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                self.errorMessage = error.localizedDescription
                completion(nil)
            }
        }
    }
