That shouldn't happen (and it does *not* happen in my case): the files are
opened but the buffers are *not* modified. But I'm confused about what
you are saying: (buffer-modified-p) returns nil the whole time, so that meant
they are unmodified. When do they become modified?

That's what I see in any case, so it must be an artifact of your setup.
Have you tried starting with emacs -q and a minimal org init file?
If that works, then bisecting your way through your .emacs seems like
the next step. In particular, starting without loading desktop seems
like a worthwhile experiment.
