Also necessary because if you write
mode: LaTeX
(or any other capitalization) in a file variable block, Emacs will
invariably call latex-mode .

Well, I would not want to rule out any blunder of that kind sitting
around for 10 years or so. But chances are that somebody might have
caught it at some time. Don't even remember who did the original
docTeX-mode (or made it useful), probably Ralf. It's quirky but pretty
useful.
