You should be even more surprised, if I say that [[file:~/tstorg]] link 
is opened in emacs buffer in shell-script mode (emacs-27.1, org main 
HEAD) despite

   (mailcap-mime-info nil)
   nil

actually it is a minimal LXC container with no mime-support package 
installed, so /etc/mailcap file is absent.

Notice `mailcap-mime-data' has the following entries for a long time
    ("text"
     ("plain"
      (viewer  . view-mode)
      (type    . "text/plain"))
     ("plain"
      (viewer  . fundamental-mode)
      (type    . "text/plain"))

The source of the problem is that Emacs-27 was released with the 
following bug:

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=40247
mailcap-mime-data erased when parsing mime parts

So `mailcap-parse-mailcaps' called from `mailcap-mime-info' erases 
predefined associations in Emacs-27.
