I agree. I think that over time, either the "mixed norsk" variant or the "pure" variants will gradually go out of use. But I do not want to dictate which ones should live and which ones should die.
Both variants should contain an explanation of the situation and links to the alternative. In a year or two we can let usage statistics tell us what best fits the public's needs, and propose that remaining unique articles on the "unpopular" Wikipedia be moved to the prefered one.
Anyhow, the current situation is asymmetrical and therefore unfair. Something ought to be done about that.
