Why is the file that is created in the following session unaffected by the umask value?

What will be an ideal response?

(example omitted)
The file is unaffected because the umask value only affects the permissions of a file at the time it
is created. Since this file was already in existence when the umask value was changed, its
permissions were already set. The subsequent date command merely overwrote an existing file.
