My reflex action in "hitting the red button" was to close the record; not delete it. Think of the human user's guidelines followed in other programs. What happens in Word or Excel or really any other program that creates a document if you hit the red button. It comes up with a big DO YOU WANT TO SAVE? warning, and the default is not delete. You have to work hard to NOT save the document.
I know Apple published a set of human user's guidelines ( http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/ipad/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGIntro/XHIGIntro.html%23//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000957) as a reference for programmers, and I suspect there are a common set of standards out there. I think parts of AC do not follow those guidelines.
