Why

I don't quite get the point of this module. I though that a Wikidata property can simply be transcluded by using {{#property:pXXX}}, e.g. {{#property:p26}} returns "Hillary Rodham Clinton" (sans quotes) on Bill Clinton's page, and [[{{#property:p26}}]] returns as expected Hillary Rodham Clinton. So what does this module do that the straight use of properties doesn't?
PS & off-topic: When will property transclusion be available for items other than the calling page, i.e. {{#property:p26|of=Bill Clinton}} or {{#property:p26|id=Q1124}} -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 13:46, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
