For what purpose? Won't [[../]] et al. work for linking?

According to example above, [[../]] returns Wikipedia:Today's featured article
with inline link. The objective is to get the title "Today's featured article".

Some application for this is for navigational template such as:
Previous article: [[{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAMEONLY}}/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}
{{#expr:{{CURRENTDAY}}-1}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}]]
Next article: [[{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAMEONLY}}/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}
{{#expr:{{CURRENTDAY}}+1}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}]]
