I notice that there are a couple of window attributes that can be set
but not get, for instance XGetWindowAttributes cannot give you the
background_pixel of a window.
This gives rise to two questions:
a) Is there a way to get the background_pixel of a window?
b) Why doesn't XGetWindowAttributes support it?

a) Is there a way to get the background_pixel of a window? No. b) Why doesn't XGetWindowAttributes support it? Because. (This question has been answered many times, I'm too tired/busy to pull the answer out of an archive.)
