Comment (by dd32):

 > I don't see what's gained by calling these wrapper functions instead of
 calling the post meta functions directly.

 If there's an API for something, use it, don't reinvent the wheel.

 get_post() calls are inexpensive (and they're cached) in the global scheme
 of things, Validation happens for a reason, and finally, If core changes
 anything, its best to only do it in one location.  If there's anything in
 core that doesn't use the wrappers, feel free to open a ticket to update
 it.. In many cases the wrappers simply didn't exist at the time.
