Yeah, I'd agree with that. There's no point wandering with the aim of becoming more powerful, as you only really level up from doing story quests (from memory).
If you spend all your time wandering around doing secondary quests, Witcher contracts and treasure hunts, I reckon you'll get a bit bored. They're great, but they truly are a side dish to the main storyline.
On the other hand, they are worth doing. I'd put them in an order of priority though:
1)Secondary quests are well worth it. Nice, compact, interesting stories for the most part.
2) Witcher contracts are good too, and also have some decent mini stories and feature interesting monsters.
3) Treasure hunts are...okay. I found some of these a bit boring if I'm honest. You find some quite cool stuff but there isn't the same narrative hook here.
4) Question marks - don't bother with them. I know some people like them and swept the whole map clean of them (and more power to them) but frankly I found these a bit pointless. They're just filler really. I don't think there was any need to mark them on the map at all, they can be quite interesting if you stumble across them, but there's really no reason to seek them out.
