This is not entirely true. Your script editor remp files are stored in [usr]/docs/maya/maya-20xx/prefs/scrptEditorTemp/ The files can be openned in any text editor. Sometimes, because of multi sessions of maya at the same time or re-installs, the scripts you were working on can be found in there even though they do not auto load into maya's script editor.
Also, in your [usr]/windows/temp dir you can often recover script temp files from there that are not in your scriptEditorTemp dir or were not commited by saving prefs or clising/opening mayas script editor following a crash.
