I could be persuaded this is true, but the standards are silent on
this issue.

That seems to date back when we didn't support retrieving the character
set from the locale, and you had to use MM_CHARSET. Seems like this
problem got solved a while ago.
FWIW, I looked at mutt and it's fallback if the locale is US-ASCII but
the characters are 8bit is to output "unknown-8bit" as the charset.
Seems like a reasonable idea to me.
