Perturbative finiteness seems to be the only reason for it, but even in quantum field theory problems fixed at the perturbative level are known to return nonperturbatively. Is this what happens with the nonperturbative eleventh dimension, which is described by nonrenormalizable membrane theory?

String Theory:
a model of fundamental physics whose building blocks are one-dimensional extended objects (strings) rather than the zero-dimensional points (particles) that are the basis of the Standard Model of particle physics.

Hi. Putting the techno-babble behind us for a minute, string theory can explain some aspects of particle physics. The 11th dimension is no more graspable to our 4 dimension experiences than 5 through 10. The trick is in the vibration of the strings and the shapes (multi-dimensional) due to those vibrations. If the theory is correct, of course.

I know you are trying to sound intelligent, but a little explanation for the folks that do not know or understand the concept of the String Theory

Yes. Just pull the string.
