It all depends on what that page is used for and what are the objects inside that page used for as well. Some objects can be used to mark certain pages. Others can store extra data: structured content in general (defined in user created xclasses) or even page comments, tags, etc. Other objects can set the document's rights. Other objects can specify which is the sheet to apply when viewing or editing the current document. The document's content (what you call "A string of wikitext") can have static content or dynamic content (scripts/code) which can execute either independently of the objects in the page or by reading some data from those objects, processing it and/or displaying/presenting it as the (dynamic) content of the document you are viewing. There are enough cases when a document has both content and objects, as the ability to have structured content in your document is a very big plus in XWiki, compared to some other wiki platforms. XWiki is a flexible platform and it all comes down to the usecase you are using it for, i.e. what you want to achieve.
