You mean, the way I upgraded all the old wrappers in a chronological
chain of API upgrades? For some reason I thought that was desirable,
but then I realized it's pretty pointless (function-call overhead is
not that high), and stopped doing it.

But how does it introduce code duplication? I agree the work wasn't
needed, but I think it was harmless...
