It's probably a dilettante-ish comment, but for a while already Flow has been working quite well on mobile web, incomparably better than the old talk pages, and it could be Flow's biggest "selling point". My intuition tells me that work to support talk pages on mobile should focus more on Flow and less on the old talk pages.
