He was the marquee character, plain & simple. Sure, he was a lesser known version of Wolverine/Logan than the general public was used to, but the people in charge were willing to gamble that the casual fan was smart enough to make the correlation between the two based on the general ideal, and most notably, the fact that he had 3 claws. After all, the Fox Cenematic version of Wolverine, as awesome as he is(was), only resembled the comic book version in the general details, and he never wore a costume even remotely resembling the comics (unless you count Ultimate Wolverine, but he wasn't even the same guy), yet the general public was able to make the association. Add to the fact the "Logan" movie had been released shortly around the same time and it's really not that hard to make the connection. Take your profile picture, for instance. To us fans, we all know that's OML, from the less mainstream storyline that your everyday, average Joe knows nothing about, but off the simple fact that he looks mean and has 3 metal claws, I doubt anyone would have a problem understanding he is indeed Wolverine (or at least a version of him). The entire "no BAF" thing is just a symptom of the fact that it was a larger wave. In the case that it's not necessary to include a BAF with a figure, which figure gets that detail? Logic says you do it with the most popular character (or what is perceived as the most popular character), which is assumed to be the hot seller irregardless of the BAF or not. Sometimes we get lucky and get some extra accessories, as was the case with the first Deadpool, but sometimes its just Old Man Logan and his surly demeanor. -
he had no baf part so.... less plastic less cost. -
For those who didn't get the SDCC exclusive, you are going to love this figure. I like the number of accessories that we get with this figure. You can recycle those effects on other figures. I personally have her holding the large soulsword with both hands in my display. -

I think Hasbro has gotten better at choosing the 2-per case figures. Tiger stripe Wolverine and Doc Ock are good examples. Then there are cases were they have no choice but to go with the most popular character like Deadpool instead of Cable and again Deadpool over Omega Red or Bishop. Why Old man Logan was chosen over Cyclops still not sure since OM Logan is not that mainstream.
