I can't think of any cases where you'd call `shell-mode'
interactively.

Hm.  Perhaps if you've started a comint buffer using another mode and
then wants to switch to `shell-mode'?  But I doubt that that's a thing.

Perhaps somebody else will chime in to say whether they've ever said
`M-x shell-mode' and it wasn't a mistake.  :-)
