Mission Architect souveniers are saved in a local text file that either purges itself over time or else limits the maximum number of souveniers you can have at one time (I'm not sure which).

Is there any official description or explanation of this anywhere?
I don't mean I don't believe you 
But this strikes me as surely something that the plasyers wouldn't want?

I know there was an issue when they were working on Ouroboros that the player had a limit to the number of souveniers they could have at one time (it used to be 100, bumped up for Issue 11 but not made infinite).
I'm assuming the local text file is their solution to this problem when someone could potentially run thousands of MA arcs over their gaming career.
I'm not sure if the purge is working as intended or not--I haven't seen any documentation on this either. I just know the file exists in the CoH install directory and is named something along the lines of "architect_souveniers.txt" (I'm at work right now and am not able to verify this exactly).

does this mean we can make our own souvenirs by editing the text file?

sure, and I can earn xp by defeating my own villains - but that's not the fast way to do it.
What kind of souvenir would you make? "This is the souvenir that you magically got for doing nothing. It all started when MrCaptainMan asked an innocent question on the forums...."

Sister Psyche's Phone Number
You saw Sister Psyche in Pocket D. She saw how hot and sexy you were and gave you her phone number.
Sadly, that's the number of a pizza place over in Talos. 
Dec out.

Yes, you could edit the file.
No, there would be little point.
However... you can... BACK UP the file. Then when your souvies go POOF! ... restore it.

After playing over 50 arcs, I have lost all of my MA souvenirs. Doesn anyone know why this is?
I'm going to be mightily peeved if this is working as intended.
