You're confusing xinetd with tcpwrappers.  The openssh daemon is linked
against tcpwrappers and no matter what you do with xinetd, that doesn't
impact the tcpwrappers functionality.

If you chose to invoke xinetd for ssh connections (or any other
connections), you can also use xinetd configuration options to enhance
security.
