Doubtless it would make more sense to you, and probably everyone else,
if it worked that way, but the fact is that what you describe, while
very simple to conceive of in your head, is very difficult to enact
within Mutt, because Mutt allows absolutely *any* command to be run,
including aliases, hooks, color commands, etc, and undoing that is not
as trivial as it sounds.

It is also a fact that, while the current system may be harder to learn,
it can be just as flexible and useful as the scheme you describe, and
can be made to do exactly what you want to do, with a little forethought.
