Not to offend you, and you've already pointed out the better way to do it, but I don't think there is too much to gain from this approach. When I was learning Vulkan for example, the only thing this helped me learn was which functions they were calling from the API. Their variable names and ifdefs and wrapper functions were completely useless to me. I was able to get their 5000 lines down to just 1000-- and that was for a single untextured cube with direct memory management and simple surface handling. Imagine if it had been more complex? 20,000 lines of typing for little reason. My neck aches thinking about it :)
