 In my observation, numeric-URI-based systems like Drupal tend to have
 minimal Links inside their content pages (i.e. beyond the menu
 system), mediawiki-based system tend to have hundreds of links inside
 their content. I believe this is so because links inside Drupal pages
 usually point to something like http://drupal.org/node/21947/ which
 makes it impossible for humans to easily check whether this is an
 intentional or erroneous link.


This is off-topic, but for Drupal this is a configuration issue. One of the
early lessons in books and tutorial series is how to configure this, and
many Drupal sites are configured to use human-readable paths. Drupal.org is
not because it has millions of nodes which often change names.

You are correct that most Drupal sites have fewer internal links than
wikis, but I think that holds for Drupal sites that are configured to use
human-readable paths as well. The cause is more likely in a different
interface issue.

I don't mean to spin this out into a tangent about Drupal, just wanted to
point out that correlation doesn't imply causation in this case.

 I don't mean to spin this out into a tangent about Drupal.

Me neither, my discussion point here is: There are advantages for
opaque (like http:something.org/node123456) and nonopaque
(http:something.org/Bonn,_Northrhine-Westfalia,_Germany) URI/IRI
identifiers.

In the light of the use-case of interlinking discussed here: which is
right for Wikidata? Does Wikidata need both in parallel (I believe
this is the current plan)?

Yes, we are planning to do both in parallel, as this page explains:
