I think it slightly impolite to post the same question to two different
places at the same time.

Anyway, are you happy with the answers you have, or do you want Emacs to
change? It is a long-standing behaviour that local variables (file or
directory) are only applied (by normal-mode) when you visit a file, and
get clobbered by major-mode changes.
