It was my proposal and we discussed it quite a bit here:

  http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=6241

The rationale for the proposal is that if a user somehow sets
buffer-offer-save to t it should not be lost because the user changes
major mode.

The content of the buffer is a propriety of the user, not the major mode.

The only real objection to this is that there can be corner cases
where a major mode relies on the current behavior. I suggest that this
if this is a problem then we will surely here of it and can easily fix
it.
