When using CDB, the cache is constant. You can't do incremental
updates. And what if WMF uses *single* cache for all projects? Then
{{SITENAME}} wouldn't be constant anymore, and we would not get better
performance where it is needed most. It could help other MediaWiki
installations a bit, just how much... I don't know.
