Ring 0 isn't "targeting" the default browsers of Android and iOS, it is using those as a metric of what developers have grown to expect when developing Web applications that can hope to match the ones found in app stores. It's just a convenient shortcut to reality which avoids having to spend endless cycles discussing what the metaphysical essence of a web app is, and how many angels can dance on its head. Since it's a shortcut it doesn't need to be a brutal cut-off. But it is nevertheless useful. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
