This vast majority of users has apparently been inconspicuous about the issue, you won't find any mention about this too easily. Many of the snap related posts have been about getting more options for the MIDI editor snap settings, not about syncing the arrange and ME snap together.
The amount of different actions and modifiers for using them to do tasks with and without snapping might explain some of that. I have usually both arrange and the MIDI editor open at the same time and go back and forth between them. Most often I have snap on in both, and use actions with modifiers when I don't need snapping. For me this is not about remembering the snap setting I might have on either area, but rather making conscious choices depending on each case.
