Looking at the examples given, perhaps it would be relatively trivial to wrap both these libraries into a single one where the library does the if statements for you.

Yes, that's certainly possible. It is also done for iOS and Android (Cupertino and Material) by another package: https://github.com/stryder-dev/flutter_platform_widgets

It indeed can be extended to do a similar job for macOS and Windows (or Linux).
