I certainly had no intention of disparaging wrappers as-such (I've developed plenty of my own over the years, and even shared a few of them). I do, however, like to make sure that folk know when they're using a wrapper rather than the primary component and that, if their need begins to move beyond the wrapper's capability, they know where to find the box of scalpels that can be used instead of the immediately-available axe :-)
But if the axe fits then use it - it is indeed much less tedious when precise enough for the job-in-hand! (Who - other than a masochist - wants to chop wood with a scalpel?)
