“wrapping” files is not a good way to think about this. The EDG behaviour between collections and files is normal owl:imports.
EDG Files contain a named graph. So do collections, and collections can include (i.e. owl:imports) a graph that happens to be in a file or a collection. If you change graph in a File at any point in time, then those changes are visible immediately in all including collections (accepting that caches may need to be refreshed for any currently in-use collections via a page reload for example). FYI there are a few “special” files in EDG - api.ttl files contents are made visible via a software mechanism rather than owl:imports. These usually contain SPARQL Functions, for example, which are really “software” not "data model” or “data”.
