Symbian app installation files have ".sis" extension. Why can't we have ".bro" for parity?

  Because no one has used Symbian in 10 years and the vast majority of us have never seen or heard of a .sis file? Not really parity if .sis is extraordinarily obscure and .bro becomes pervasive.

    Don't speak for the entire world ("no one"), I personally know two guys that still use Symbian-powered smartphones and don't plan to change them to anything.

      I know more people than that who still use a Commodore 64 on the regular. But, it doesn't make it a viable platform.
