The current behavior is what is intended.

The only thing in Mailman which calls MTA.Manual.create(..., quiet=True) is "bin/genaliases --quiet" when MTA="Manual". The documentation for the genaliases --quiet option is

. Some MTA output can include more verbose help text. Use this to tone
. down the verbosity.

Further, when MTA = "Manual" the only thing genaliases does is print aliases. Thus, if calling MTA.Manual.create(..., quiet=True) produced no output, "bin/genaliases --quiet" would do nothing so why would one want to run it at all.
