"As far as the rule existing, I see no mechanical reason for it to exist."
The mechanical purpose of legend is to create a drawback so that card designers can create more powerful cards than ordinary. Can you imagine facing against multiple Ragavan, Nimble Pilferers or Mox Opals at a single given time in a non-singleton format.
However, most of the reason the drawback from being legendary is reduced, I believe, is because of:
-the rise of EDH as the main format. The legend rule doesn't matter in a singleton format.
-the power creep of design as time goes by. Non-legendaries most of the time now rivals the power level of legends, again making the supposed drawback pointless.

#1I still believe Whippoorwill is the biggest flavor fail. The bird is shown flying yet it doesn't have the ability or any ability to possibly gain the ability to fly.
