You should not mix up UTIs and OSTypes/Extensions/etc.
OSTypes, file extensions, mime-types, etc. are "type tags". Type tags
are the hints to find a file's type, they are not the type itself.
Content type UTI, on the other hand, IS the type.
LaunchServices is responsible to type a file by analyzing its tags.
The real bug here is that LS is not very good when one tag designates
two different types... especially if the tag is the file's extension.

I have no objection to prioritizing UTIs over OSTypes, but when
there are multiple UTIs that refer to the same file extension
then UTIs AND OSTypes must be used to find the correct action.
Otherwise UTIs are the same as file extensions. In which case,
I don't see the point of their existence.
I filed a bug report It's #5745656.
