Why do they link to non-existent language versions?

Not without edits: changing interwiki conventions is not an option.
The normal process would be to ask a list of such pages to a volunteer using
API or https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/DBQ or a dump (if a recent dump is
available) and then a bot to replace all such links (it's a very trivial
change).
