I'm not sure. What we generally think of as structured data does not use
mixed content, but there are also many documents that do not use mixed content.

I wonder if this isn't more an issue of the kind of processing than the
kind of document. I agree that formatting documents is often best done with
a push model. Extracting data can be done with either. Combining and
restructuring data sources is generally best done with a pull model. I have
certainly used the same data to do all three.
