Yes. It is very unlikely that if something is written to file not all data were written (as the amount of data to be written is low). A bit less unlikely is the case that output file is created but no data written. Should such an extremely rare cases happen it should be enough just to report it so it get noticed (and not add any extra code to handle such cases any further). One checking the results would probably guess that if output is as nonsensical as it is something went badly wrong.
