A potential counter point here is that wrappers help reducing churn if the library being wrapped is actively developed - this can apply to both external libraries and ones developed by other internal teams. A wrapper limits the surface area that needs updating and can make some otherwise quite painful upgrades easier, at the cost of maintaining the wrapper itself. As ever, it’s a situational thing of course!
