It's the opposite - there is a risk, but not a larger risk. Environment traversal is easier through a certificate transparency log, there is almost zero work to do. Through a wildcard compromise, the environment is not immediately visible. It's much safer to do wildcard for certs for internal use.
Environment visibility is easy to get. If you pwn a box which has foo.internal, you can now impersonate foo.internal. If you pwn a box which has *.internal, you can now impersonate super-secret.internal and everything else, and now you're a DNS change away from MITM across an entire estate.
Security by obscurity while making the actual security of endpoints weaker is not an argument in favour of wildcards...
