Piped links are useful to hide page names. If you only have pages like "Allen" on your wiki, it might not seem useful. But once you use parentheses to disambiguate, it becomes vital. Which witch will be "Witch"? What's a loyalist loyal to? Who's Jones? Which Robin are we talking about? You can't simply plonk that link with parentheses and all in an article, that hampers readability.

Piped links work. They're vital. If "people"which people? have been on wikia for years and not see the use, they've been on a very, very tiny part of Wikia. Fandom.

Oh, and by the way, all those links above are piped.
