Other than the delay, I see no evidence that what you assert is true.

Again, where's the evidence: currently minibuffer-message is pretty much
unusable in a non-minibuffer buffer, yet I haven't seen a single bug
report about it.

Care to give a scenario where that's a problem? It's pretty extremely
rare to be inside a minibuffer that's not active, if you ask me.

So when some unrelated minibuffer is active, you want to display your
message next to its content, giving the impression that the message
refers to the minibuffer's content? That doesn't sound right at all.
