Once again: file-local variables is a way for a file to override
_every_ other possible setting.  That includes any user customizations
and everything else, because all of the other means to give variables
non-default values are not specific to one file, they always affect
more than one.

If that doesn't address your arguments, please consider elaborating
those arguments.
