"What if the Lua Module called a separate file written in C?"

Lua's imports are sanitized. So you can't really import code written in C.

I think the way forward is really page widgets that adapt to mobile, instead of creating specific hacks to make CSS show there. Newer MediaWiki versions do allow users to add CSS directly on mobile, although in some cases these seem to result in incredibly bad pages.

The thing about adhoc hacks is simply that they are not scalable, and while you seem to have technical know how and may make good decisions about content, the vast majority of Wikia's user base does not.
