MZ primarily said the design choices of mobile differ significantly from
mediawiki core, and hence don't really represent a precedent in core. This
is a statement I agree with. Whether or not these choices are good ones is
debatable and probably the grounds for a flamewar. However I think that's
besides the point for this conversation.
