I also prefer proportional fonts for prose in Org buffers, and I configured my face settings accordingly a long time ago. However, it is not necessarily so that proportional fonts are required for prose. Great works have been written on typewriters for many years. As well, Emacs/Org are not necessarily aimed at prose writing more than other uses, and changing the default would probably be off-putting to many existing users, so the default probably should not be changed. Having said that, if Org could have a simple org-mixed-pitch-mode, or something like that, that could be very helpful, since it could make such configuration much easier. Maybe one could be written to use face-remapping, which shouldn't take much code.
