Sweating the Sweating Stuff
Right. The wrapping thing would seem to trap/retain moisture. Maybe that makes sense in very arid conditions.

. . . peppers are picked and cut, dried in the sun by day, then
wrapped and sweated at night
for more than a week. This sweating process gives the chiles a rich, earthy flavor and smoky aroma.
