The editing experience surely has more features when there is more screen "real estate" to work with. And the styling on a larger screen allows for more detail and variation. In short, the richer display on a big screen allows for more "style" to add to the "substance". There's no debate on these points.

What is the most likely, based on what we have seen, is not that mobile is being used for quick check-ins so much as it is being used to learn and experience content. The actual text, images, and video are more important than the styling. In some territories, there is a lack of access to desktop devices; this is frequently a matter of choice rather than one of economy or availability. While some choose a richer experience on larger devices, the convenience of using mobile is a more appealing option to many.

I feel as if you have missed the crucial part of the post above. Fandom embracing mobile usage is not a matter of "selling out". We are confirming something that we have been mentioning for many years: readers use mobile more than they do desktop — not only on Fandom, but in every corner of the internet, all over the world. Fandom is recognizing that fact, which is not a matter of opinion, and is evolving with the web. This post is a reminder that wikis should take note of that evolution and should be accordingly aware of their content. Mobile is not a fad nor going away, and does represent the majority of users on Fandom and most everywhere else.
