Wild Magic is the most ancient type of magic, and is considered to be able to do pretty much anything as long as you can make the sacrifice. The fact that it is older than any other magic type and that it fundamentally has the ability to make any other kind of magic makes it a far better candidate to be the original type of magic (both PDL and Fluder state variations of this).

And translation is a low-level spell, albeit one that Ainz didn't bother to learn (Fluder, on the other hand, does know such a spell). Ainz appears to be referring to a low-grade 'trash' food item in Yggdrasil when he talks about the possibility of everyone having been fed it. Thus even if it were something that would require the most powerful of the Twenty to bring about, it would not have occurred to the 6GG to be an objective worth using such a thing, nor something they couldn't/wouldn't have tested out first.

I mean, the idea that allowing translation of all different languages would result in an outbreak of peace is extensively disproven by history and is roundly mocked in a lot of fantastic fiction (there are NO works widely recognized as having lasting literary merit which rely on the idea that magic translation would automatically produce peace), so if the 6GG were going to spend the most OP of the World Items on it, they definitely would have tried it out by other means. Even if they hadn't learned any translation magic, since they apparently weren't max level they could have leveled up and learned it.

As for Dragons liking treasure (and not being good at making it), that's not a cultural attribute but rather an innate and instinctive trait of the species, along with the tendency of Dragons typically prefer having slaves over cooperating with their own close relatives (which itself would tend to make it hard for them to even have strong cultural traits). A recent historical explanation for such a trait is unpersuasive (especially given how long Dragons live).
