...except that neither of those are valid, because (1) companies already support more than a single platform and (2) they already implement non-web clients for iOS and Android, so the debugging ease argument doesn't apply either.
Companies already shown that they're willing to invest in n+1 platforms to get more profit - that is, they've already decided that 3 is better than 1, so why would 7 (or 4) not be better than 3?
