If you want to find items without a label in a given language the resultset is in most cases too large to be useful. A tool like https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-terminator/ is needed to help find the items where a label or description is actually important to have.
The one remaining usecase for the special pages is then doing this for properties. Here the number is manageable and useful. So we can optimize for this case and remove the item case.
True. I would suggest to restrict them by configuration rather than hard coding the supported entity types. They might still be useful for third parties with only a few items and we get support for that (almost) for free as it seems.
