Note that you're messaging the NSSpellChecker class and not your NSTextView 
instance.  Those class methods on NSSpellChecker reflect system-wide settings.  
For example, +isAutomaticSpellingCorrectionEnabled reflects the state of the 
checkbox at System Preferences > Keyboard > Text > "Correct spelling 
automatically".  You can see this for yourself: go to System Preferences, 
change that checkbox, run your program again, and the NSLog will print a 
different value.

When a text view is created it uses your system-wide settings for spelling 
correction, etc.  Thereafter it is possible to change the settings for the text 
view independently of the system-wide settings.  To see this for yourself: 
right-click a text view and look at "Spelling and Grammar".  There's a "Correct 
Spelling Automatically" menu item that you can toggle that affects just that 
text view.

Again, you're messaging the NSSpellChecker class rather than your NSTextView 
instance.  NSSpellChecker does not have a +setAutomaticTextReplacementEnabled: 
class method, but NSTextView *does* have a -setAutomaticTextReplacementEnabled: 
instance method.  So you can do this:

        [_textView setAutomaticTextReplacementEnabled:NO];
