Ok but the section is a part of page. You can't save section without affecting whole page. So you save the whole page, even when you are editing just a section.
I believe that Mediawiki allows editing in parallel....
Person A edits Section 1
Person B edits Section 2
Person C edits Section 3
etc
This can happen concurrently. Hence, Person X changes the section, but all he changes in total change the page?

He changes the whole page. In such situation MediaWiki is usually able to merge the sections by itself, but each of them is a full page save. It gets exposed in the fact that when there's an edit conflict, you will get the whole page even if you were editing just a section. But really, this is low-level stuff which the users shouldn't be concerned with. You can rename it to "Save text" if you want.
