Three reasons I can think of: - Loading an item is heavy and requires a lot of network bandwith inside the dc. Plus it would put a lot of pressure on memcached and databases. See this as a cache layer - Client wikis need to override those entries (sometimes) with `[[en:Foo]]` - it allows more complex querying in labs, e.g. articles that have a lot of interwiki links but not in language foo.
