Yes, I take your point about different platforms, the more complex local processing, the more you are likely to find differences in browsers, plugins, etc... Just to be clear I was talking about local HTML/JS 'applications' not native (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, ...) Those are still vended from the server you control. But you also have to support 'different platforms' if vending HTML/CSS/JS from a server. And end users are always end users, I get my share of reports for web applications...
