If not for other reasons, just because of the Freedom of Panorama issues, which become really important for some segments of Wikivoyage.
Then they'll need to set up an EDP before such non-free images are imported locally, automatically or otherwise. (My personal opinion, shared by some, is also that local upload should be completely disabled unless there's an EDP. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Local_uploads_policy )
