 > Is there a use-case am I missing where a subtype may be associated with
 different mime types?

 It's rare, but yes this does happen. Mime types for Ogg files work like
 this, with `video/ogg` and `audio/ogg`.

 > `attachment.php` can be caught in `single-attachment.php`.

 Yeah, the attachment template hierarchy has gotten a bit messed up.
 Deprecating or removing this doesn't provide much benefit, so I'd be
 hesitant to deprecate it.

 See #38160 for more attachment template hierarchy weirdness.
