Do you have a counter-argument?   I think the factors are at play were:

1) We have a huge amount of content already in MediaWiki from the
legacy project. Although it might be converted to Confluence, the
effort would be large.

on the other hand

2) MediaWiki was not supported by Apache Infrastructure and getting it
supported and migrated would require a lot of admin work

So far, it looks like the admin effort has made more progress than the
translation effort.   Maybe not a final decision, but that is how it
looks to me today.
