One of the main problems I see with this whole rhetoric is: you're still talking about "mobile vs desktop" as if those were two nicely separate, distinct silos. They're not. We need to move away from treating something as "mobile accessibility" and instead qualify it more specifically as being "touchscreen accessibility", "small-screen accessibility", etc. Already there are plenty of device in the market today (such as 2-in-1 laptops) which blur the line, but still require SCs and Guidelines that apply to new input/display/etc methods available.
