Removing rubberised coating from what? and why?

From steering wheel and cupholders because most of it is worn and looks terrible tbh.

Better to wrap it than remove it

If you were to wrap it with bits missing, would look moody

No nobody said you had to wrap it in anything fancy - you can wrap it in glossy black, but if you can get it all off neat and tidy back to gloss black then why not. I don't have any rubberised coating on my cup holder so can't really comment but would have thought it was there to grip the cup.
On the steering wheel I'd suggest the reason they do it is for definitely for grip. Having had a classic a car with a highly polished wood rim steering wheel, I can say gloss steering wheels are not a good idea !!!!

Rather than removing, could any loose bits be removed and then filled in, levelled and all re-coated, ie plasti dip sprayed. Seems to be much less work and perhaps less likely to scuff up and end up not being what you want?
