Usually you will find rebranding as part to improve your already destroyed image. If your image is good, your won't create a new brand and start from the beginning. Is our image so bad that we would need a restart? Otherwise we only loose some part of that, what we already achieved, considering our image.
I share your opinion that this logo sucks. No one without an real interest will understand why we have such different lines inside the logo. Additionally it is hard to print (blue, light gray).

I think that this study helps us to understand that there is no brand to represent all projects.
Most of all for communication matters or to explain that Wikipedia has sister projects, we are used to create the "planetary system" of Wikipedia with all other logos around it.
Basically there is no brand and no name or no communication facilities to use one logo for all projects and to explain that Wikipedia is not only Wikipedia.
