So, is it possible that somehow the data is being cold-swapped in nemu?

No, because the emulator wasn't programmed to clear the RAM upon closure, so the RAM data just remains there as dummy data until new data comes in. That explains why ssj had DK64 data after 400000+, since Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie was never programmed in the first place to have data that far up (since it didnt need the expansion pack)
My guess would be if they crashed it's because some variables in the RAM need to be 00, and the game doesn't write data there since it would be 00 anyway (I'm not sure which games these apply too, but they vary). If it doesn't write the data, the data from the previous game would remain there.
