The issue trying to solve are the following:

1) mediawiki has a short life time per releases and major updates require
schema changes to the database. There is no way to automate this in a way in
%post due to local changes and such and assuming system has database up etc.
etc.

2) some sites want to stay at a major version of mediawiki without moving to
the next one. The idea is to parallel install them and 'obsolete' old versions
when they are no longer supported upstream. THis allows an enterprise site to
do upgrades when they want to versus on a 'yum update'

Does that help explain the reasoning?
