The power of WiKi is shown in the book by breaking the Gates of Minas Tirith. The growing power of Aragorn is shown in liberating of South Gondor and leading its men to the battle. It looks like they started altering the storry and couldn't stop.
As it was said many times in this thread, one of the reasons why the scene was altered, was to make it mens' (not wizard's) viktory. But this doesn't work as the final blow to Morgul Host comes from the Dead, and PJ was accused in robbing men of their victory here http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showthread.php?t=15272
