In this edit you wrote, "en.wiki does not want to use WD data". Once upon a time, I thought that the whole point of Wikidata was to be used by the 'pedias, and while it took a while for that linking to get off the ground, at one point it seemed like it was actually picking up. So I'm more than a little dismayed to hear that there are strong wishes not to use WD data at all, after all. Do you have any links to discussions or decisions formalizing this attitude?
(I'm not arguing with you or doubting you, though; as a matter of fact I just came across w:Wikipedia:Short description, which explains that "Initially short descriptions were drawn from the Description field in Wikidata entries, but because of concerns about including information directly from another project, the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) made provision for these to be overwritten by short descriptions generated within Wikipedia", followed by the direction that "Eventually, all articles should have a short description template", i.e., according to that page there should be no descriptions drawn from Wikidata at all. Foo.)
