Why? Because our mission is to make things free (as in speech).
You may have heard about that ;-)

It's Wikipedia the free (as in speech) encyclopedia, not Wikipedia the
fair use encyclopedia.

So in theory, en shouldn't be allowing fair use either. In
practice, some people fubared things, and now it's grandfathered
in.

Also, de.wikipedia uses Commons 100% iirc. Commons also only
hosts actual free (as in speech) images. Because -hey- that's
their mission.
