I think it started because they tried to start a Chinese edition for the PRC, but that was eventually blocked after they published a story the communists didn't like. Maybe continuing to pay for translations is not too expensive in the grand scheme of things, and keeps them well-positioned (with mind-share and the like) if there's ever a thaw and they're unblocked.
