I thinked it might be due to different names and also because I once read about it and didn't find a clear example of a difference (due to lack of background knowledge at the time)... I don't think it's worth discussing...

You've asked twice, now, how a file creation mask is not a mask. Both times, people have asked in several ways why you think that to even be the case. You did not explain in the deleted question, and you aren't really explaining here. Do not be surprised that the repeated question gains no traction.

I think I explained it above and the explanation doesn't satisfy you; go on, downvote more and more of my questions. Very helpful and communal.

I wouldn't call a bit mask a 'stream' (though if you're into streams, you can treat everything as a stream). There's no difference between a bitmask and the umask; the latter is just a bitmask describing what permission to turn off when creating a file. You're like what difference is between a spade and and spade used to dig a grave.

umask is used to set the mask.
Did you mean to say it is a utility ?

In Linux the default file permission is 0644, default directory permission is 0755 and default umask is 0022.
Now, as the full permission of a file is 0666, the default permission came from (0666 - 0022 = 0644) and for directory it is (0777 - 0022 = 0755).
You can set the mask using #umask 0000, and it will create files and directories with full 666/777 permission (which is very insecure though).
