I wonder that, too.
I came to the same conclusion - this is the hack I use:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(with-eval-after-load 'mailcap
(let* ((apps (cdr (assoc "application" mailcap-mime-data)))
(to-delete (seq-some (lambda (el) (and (equal (nth 0 el) "pdf")
(equal (nth 1 el) '(viewer . doc-view-mode))
el))
apps)))
(setq mailcap-mime-data (cons (cons "application" (delq to-delete apps))
(delq apps mailcap-mime-data)))))
#+end_src
Michael.
