F*ck you wheel is awesome and you don't know what you're talking about.
Literally the only flaw the Wheel ability has is that in most games its moveset is limited to only a single move even when other abilities have an entire palette of skills available to them, but even in those cases it still manages to be extremely versatile. It's fast, it can go through any type of enemy even the ones that are invincible in other circumstances, allows you to travel over water quickly, is super useful in speed-based puzzles where it's often a necessity, and in the games after Super Star where you can jump makes it all the more versatile for traveling over literally any sort of terrain. And let us not forget it's usefulness when speed-running.
And your complaint about its existence in Triple Deluxe honestly doesn't make sense. Not only is it a beloved classic ability that should have shown up earlier, but it was powered up considerably for this appearance, including a new downward slam attack, the ability to do rapid damage while "parked", and a speed boosting move that also allows you to launch yourself spiraling through the air violently. If there is ANY complaint about this it should be that it didn't show up earlier in the Wii title, where it was cut to make the game more co-op friendly.
In conclusion:
