@beleg_tal: I agree with your statements, especially "interwiki system needs to be flexible enough to accommodate different data models", however, I do not think this is an inherently Wikidata issue. For example: Wikitionary has a very different model where it wants to cover every Lexeme in every language on every one of their language-based wikis in their project. It makes sense based on what they are trying to accomplish and as such they basically do not really need nor want to use Wikidata sitelinks in their Interwiki links since for any specify Lexeme they want to link to every one of their wikis regardless if they constitute the same logical "thing" from a Wikidata perspective. This is not somethings that Wikidata or its sitelinks should attempt to consider solving. The point is Wikidata sitelinks are not a one tool for all MWF Interwiki link needs and as such we should not try to solve all such issues there. Wikidata sitelinks are great for solving links to MWF wikis where they represent a single "thing" from Wikidata's point of view. If that does not work for some MWF projects, those issues should be solved by their respective projects and not necessarily at Wikidata (though Wikidata can of course entertain changes that benefit all or many of the projects but they are not a solution for everything).
