Preventing dinos able to pick/carry other dinos from doing so to wilds was a lazy and pretty ineffective "fix" for griefing. It also nullifies half or most of the combat and practical functionality of some of the game's most fun tames, such as the kapro, almost useless without it unless you particularly like them, tusos which are left unable to use their best ability: the succ, crabs which can save the day through the power of yeet, etc. These are partially/mostly pve abilities which are exclusive to pvp which is a real shame when the main appeal of pve is having fun with cool tames and unique abilities. Not to mention that it in no way helps people luring titans, gigas, wyverns to peoples' bases.
Here are some better suggestions to prevent using wilds to grief people.
Prevent the transfer of aggro from one tribe to another. If a dino's aggro is attempted to be "passed" to another tribe it should remain passive indefinitely unless the receiving tribe attacks it. It should also be set to despawn shortly unless a tribe actively aggros it for taming/killing etc (for exampIe you woul still be able to use public/unlocked traps as it would remain aggroed to you) In the event of an attempt to transfer aggro, a tribe's tamed aggressive dinos and defences should also not attack. It may help for the act of picking a wild to cause aggro.
Prevent crossfire damage to other players' tames/structures etc. Someone should not be able to tank damage from a wild to cause it to damage someone else's property.
Reduce the length/distance of wyvern aggro as well as fix them randomly deciding to fly across the map and then getting mad at the first poor unsuspecting base they happen upon. This is a huge problem on valguero.
This is a suggestion for the base game and official servers, as this is not only an issue with reduced functionality of tames and the restriction of parts of the game which are not inherently pvp oriented, but the way griefing is not made impossible by the change in the slightest, at best it slightly inconveniences the troll.
