That is why we may need a custom APISite as well as a custom family. Such an ugly problem to work around. It would be worth finding other wikis with similar interwikimap bugs, to justify the time spent on it. The one sort of similar problem is battlestarwiki, which has a lot of dead wikis in its interwikimap. I expect that we'd find other wikis with interwikimap problems, but I am not sure how we'd find these wikis. We could validate the interwiki map of all meta IWM wikis; that might uncover some interesting problems. If it is a beta wiki only problem, we should work with 'upstream' to resolve https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T75906, which has a patch and probably only needs to get some review loving.
