Yes, it's an interesting question.
I tried converting that template with 37000 switch cases to a Lua
array. Lua used 6.5MB for the chunk and then another 2.4MB to execute
it, so 8.9MB in total

Well, you said something about Wikidata. But even if the client Wiki
would not need to load the full census, can it be avoided on Wikidata?

I took another look at the output that is created with the data, and I
am at the same time delighted and astonished by the capability and
creativity of the Wikipedia community to solve such tasks with
MediaWiki template syntax and at the same time horrified by the
necessity of the solution taken.
I too use sometimes large switches (some hundred) and I'm far from happy
about. For larger switches, I use nested switches, but I find very
difficult to compare performance of nested switches (i.e.: a 1000 elements
switch can be nested in three switches of 10 elements) against single

Daniel,
sorry for the previous tone of my answer. Indeed I mixed up the Sites
management RFC, that I was discussing, and your proposal to change the
Sitelinks table. Although they are related, the former does not depend

Alternately; if ever there was a case for automatedly creating a whole
hierarchy of new separate templates for each article, or even just directly
editing the articles and putting the data in...
Templates would make finding and updating later somewhat easier I think.

I'm trying to figure out what needs to happen with the remaining extensions

Some atomic specific page data set is needed and it's perfectly logic
and predictable the creative users try any trick to forse wikicode and
template code do get such a result.
I appreciate deeply and I'm enthusiast about WikiData project, but I wonder
about this issue: is wikidata a good data
