The reason they exist is historical, and is just for flexibility.
And for an upgrade path from 4.7.
On the flexibility angle, I'm going to propose a patch with two/three changes:
* page not promoted by default
* page with comments off by default
* (don't know if we can easily do this) page with "submitted by" turned off by default
Having two content types, even though identical in fields, provides more
flexibility in workflow. For example, one can be moderated by default,
and have comments on by default, the other can be not so.
In 5.0, you can define your own type, or delete story if you don't like it.
