Have you tried searching the archives / doing a web search for past
threads about this?

e.g.,
https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=mutt-dev@mutt.org&q=subject:%22Re%5C%3A+%5C%5BPATCH%5C%5D+Add+%24umask+for+mailboxes+and+attachments%22&o=newest&f=1

If you look towards the end of this thread, it alludes to earlier
threads and some of the reasons. I'm sure you could find those
discussions as well if you spend a couple of minutes.

I would guess that the objections mostly have to do with the security
risks of allowing people to override this setting.
