This really needs to be changed. There are hundreds of languages (approximately 350) where the main page is completely broken, e.g. - https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=ig - https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=sm - https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=sms - https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=mni - https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=mnw There are plenty of other multilingual wikis which have a translatable main page without using this option: - mediawiki.org - meta.wikimedia.org - incubator.wikimedia.org - wikifunctions.org - wikisource.org - foundation.wikimedia.org - outreach.wikimedia.org - wikimania.wikimedia.org There aren't many which do use this and they all have broken main pages in the majority of languages: - Wikidata - Commons - Wikispecies Of the subpages of MediaWiki:Mainpage, 92 contain "Wikidata:Main Page" or another page which redirects to it and 27 point to a page which is the same as the translatable main page. 23 are using the pre-2014 main page design and //still// haven't been updated a decade later. The only ones which use the 2014 main page design but aren't identical to the translatable page are `bn`, `ckb`/`ku-arab` and `or`.
