it is better to have ANY Wiki (here, UseModWiki) than try to establish a nonexistent consensus on which Wiki everyone agrees is best. That can be sorted out later, if people want it sorted out badly enough.
I agree in general, but the Wiki is a great example of a place where a little more forward thinking might have been a good idea. Because wiki's tend to fill with content rapdily, once you use them for a little while you are pretty much locked in. Especially given this comment:
Counterpoint? (No, I don't want to become embroiled in this dicussion).
It certainly is easier to migrate content that exists, even if it is in the wrong format, than content that does not exist.
