The point was that the poster expected tcpwrapper to take and process the connection and not sendmail. But this could only happen if sendmail were not running as a standalone daemon and tcpd were responsible for port 25 via inetd. Support for libwrap just means that sendmail can make use of it while *it* is processing the mail.
