This seems like a bad tradeoff, considering that MMS are entirely unencrypted and traverse a lot of legacy infrastructure.

legacy yes, entirely unencrypted is mostly wrong. mms used tls in later revisions (it uses soap in mm7 upwards)
Point-to-point transport layer encryption is not even worth mentioning anymore these days, in my opinion. SMTP uses TLS, yet I would not call email an encrypted messaging service.
