FWIW, I'd consider it as a plain bug.

AUCTeX has half of the same bug: by default, AUCTeX overrides latex-mode
to call TeX-latex-mode, so in the default config it's correct to set
major-mode to `latex-mode'.  But of course, if you configure `TeX-modes'
so as not to override latex-mode, then AUCTeX has that same bug.
