It’s indeed annoying to mix the two extensions, as they are quite different,
not only from a technical perspective:
- **Translate**: It’s not even clear what you want, `{{ll}}` does two things
in one:
- It changes the link target from `Help` to `Special:MyLanguage/Help`,
sending the user to the translated page in the UI language (if there’s any).
- Making this default would be a bad idea, as that would mean there’s no
way //not// to link to a translated page.
- It changes the link text to the translated title in the language of the
linking page (if there’s any), unless overridden in the second parameter.
- Making this default would be okay (since it’s easy to revert:
`[[Help|Help]]`), but would not make much sense IMO without the first one.
- **Wikibase**: `{{Q}}` does only one thing, modifying the label.
- This being the default was once a thing in certain scenarios, and has
been disabled due to performance issues (T292203
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T292203>), so it’s unlikely to be
implemented again. By the way, these performance issues may affect Translate as
well.
