That's only a circumstantial evidence.  read-only-mode is a thin
wrapper around buffer-read-only variable, but setting buffer-read-only
directly (which is what we do when you visit a write-protected file)
doesn't invoke the mode function, and thus the mode hook is not run.
For the same reason, the setting of view-read-only is not honored in
the scenario you described.
