I don't think so: when I start Emacs with -Q, type `M-x gnus', 'y' to
continue despite having no news server set up, get to the Group buffer,
type `G f' to visit a file as a foreign group, and that file contains a
mail with an attached mail as described in my OP, and then follow the
steps in my OP, I get the same results as I reported in my OP.
Moreover, stepping through message-reply with edebug, I don't see how
this can be otherwise.

Are you sure you don't have a customization that makes this possible?
Do you still see this with -Q, following the steps described above?
