The browser is an application that renders webpages. It doesn't need any mystical vague purpose. Further, the OS doesn't wrap the machine, that's not even a good analogy. When you wrap something you've protected it or hidden it, or even ended it. I don't need a browser to manage my time or focus. I need it to render websites efficiently so I can interact with them.
