        The ‘why' was apparently lost. :(  Getting slightly off-topic:

Pre-Hugo:

ant + site source repo
mvn site + source repo

Post-Hugo:

hugo + site source repo
mvn site + source repo

It could have been:

mvn site + source repo

        Hadoop already had a static site generator that was part of it’s core 
and without major work wasn’t going to go away.  There was little value in just 
swapping out ant (which most of the committers have a small grasp of) for hugo 
(which maybe 3 people understood) just to get updated graphics and layout when 
there could have been a major process improvement with updated graphics and 
layout and without a bunch of people having to learn new stuff.
