I think the page name should be wrapper induction which is far more clear as a specific domain.
Failing that, it was a mistake to call these things wrappers in the first place. A far better name would have been unwrapper (data mining), which pares away the fashionable and fluid rind from the templatey inner fruit.
For myself, I'd be likely to name this randrind removal tool.
Or maybe vulgrind (to grind away the vulgar rind with Vulcan precision) after Valgrind. VGVR for short. Or maybe VG'R after V'Ger. But that's just me.
Spock was ultimately pretty good at wrapper induction. That's the only way he ever coped with Bones in the first place. — MaxEnt 17:36, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
