Comment (by lucasstark):

 @swissspidy The page template can also be empty, so it needs to account
 for that as well.

 To reproduce create a new page from the dashboard and then look at the
 result from the API for that new page.

 http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/<PAGE-ID>

 You'll see that the template is an empty string.
