I don't know any more about the decision than you do, but I would
point out that a) FlaggedRevs is all coded and ready for deployment,
unlike most Commons features that are desired; and b) Wikimedia has
made a quite public commitment to deploy FlaggedRevs soon, unlike any
Commons features.  It's not like Commons has been ignored, anyway --
the new-upload branch should greatly benefit Commons, from what I've
heard.  It's just apparently not ready for deployment yet.

I'm not trying to discourage anyone for poking people about
improvements to Commons here, of course.  I'm sure more work should be
put into Commons.  But at this precise moment, prioritizing this one
specific enwiki feature seems to make sense.
