How to increase the number of polygons while maintaining mesh curvature in Blender
In your case a Subdivide operation with the Smoothness at 1 should give the desired result, but for more complicated shapes, don't use the Subdivide tool in Edit mode, it will tend to flatten the ...

How to blend meshes that intertwined each other?
You could typically use a Skin modifier for this kind of object:
Draw the general shape with a simple vertex that you extrude (use a Mirror modifier to symmetrize, enable its Clipping option):

How to move specific vertices/edges after extrusion with Geometry Nodes?
If, as you show in your example, you extrude a mesh and scale the extruded faces, the newly created points are always indexed according to a specific scheme:
Therefore, you would simply have to ...

Can anyone help me with a "simple" way to wrap a mesh onto a rounded base mesh?
So the problem is not the way you shrink wrapped things. The problem is the Face-mask thingy doesn't exactly have the perfect/required geometry to get shrink wrapped.
