Template type (initial/jcr:content/sling:resourceType points to different page component than structure/jcr:content/resourceType) .. what are the implications ??

Hi @adilmo,

Defining sling:resourceType in initial and structure refers to the page rendering component for the respective template. 

For XF, page rendering component is the one that inherits from OOB resource - cq/experience-fragments/components/xfpage

Defining the same as part of initial and structure of XF's template-type and template, brings in Variation, Building blocks when we create XF pages using those templates (specific to XF page editor)

In general,

• For static template creation, we use to locate the page rendering component. 
• Same way for editable templates, initial and structure (two modes of template editor) is the place to define the page rendering component.

Let know if you are looking for any other details.
