I feel like if you go long enough and set the bark well then the foil on ribs won’t really effect in that much. They were only wrapped on the smoker for 30-45 minutes. I also think if you wrap tight it doesn’t really steam and lose the bark. I think a lot of people that wrap in foil also go the butter, brown sugar, and all other sorts of stuff that will soften the bark as well.

Admittedly I’ve never tried wrapping ribs in butcher paper, if your glaze in the foil seems like it wouldn’t really work well in butcher paper.

This. If you are doing a wet rib, or just not a dry rub Rendezvous style, then butcher paper doesn't really work in your favor. Bark isn't prioritized on ribs typically. 99% of people add some type of liquid/glaze to the wrap which will affect any bark development more than the wrap material.
