You don't have to write an API layer and get type checking among some other benefits. Is it a ton of savings? No, but I'd describe it as a significant amount of effort and lower complexity.

To be fair, with libraries the API layer can be essentially zero code, and with type checking. That's how it worked when I was at my previous gig.
