You should not need to use allPageItems -- indeed, you must not use it. It returns an array of all pageItems on the page in question whether or not they're contained in some other page item (although, there is a bug, if you're using pageItems as anchored objects in text on a path, but that is such a rare scenario that most people are unaffected by the bug).

Because you're moving page items to another page, the items contained inside other items will come along for the ride, so you only need to move the members of the collection of pageItems, i.e., those which are directly on the page, not nested inside something else.
