I'm not sure I understand your point. If it's better for mediawiki.org to have a non-WMF extension doing this, and neither SMW nor Wikidata are developed by WMF, how is SMW a better choice than Wikidata?

Why? SMW is already here, it's documented beautifully, it has good performance, active community and it is NOT developing by Wikimedia Foundation, which is good political decision for the MediaWiki.org portal which aimed to be closer to 3rd party developers.
Software development of Wikidata is actually primarily by Wikimedia Deutschland.
