       The very vast majority of minor modes have no reason whatsoever to do
       this.

   Does that matter?

No, but what _really_ matters is that it is completely impossible for
define-minor-mode to reliably keep track of what major mode the minor
mode was set up for, just as much as it is impossible for
define-global-minor-mode to do this.  Any function could potentially
set up the minor mode for a given major mode, not just the minor mode
function.  Font Lock is a pretty wild example of that.

Sincerely,

Luc.
