It depends on priorities: I'd rather be able to customize
an attachment than manually insert a simple Nmh-Attachment
header (I think that's the option you mention). I've never
done that.
It's just that when I hear the word "customize", I ask the question:
"If you want to customize your MIME content, why aren't you just adding
a mhbuild directive to your draft?" What are you customizing, exactly?
Also, the semantics behind:
Nmh-Attachment: foo.pdf
are clear to me as a casual user.
The semantics behind:
Nmh-Attachment: #application/pdf {attachment} foo.pdf
are less clear to me and requires me to parse the BNF in the mhbuild
man page. Also, more to get wrong! The only reason I want an
Nmh-Attachment header to cause a failure is from being unable to read
the file.

I agree with Ken here. I do want to point out that the attach command
reports an error if it can't attach a file. So the only time you'd get
an error from send is if the file vanishes between the "at" and the "s".
Pretty small window. Is this a real problem or just theoretical?
