Comment:
Okay, here are the meeting results in condensed form:
1) We keep the mobile UA for Android as the breakage would be too high
without it.
2) We investigate whether we can avoid the broken experience on macOS by
sending a uniform UA header for all desktop platforms but do not lie about
the JS navigator property as the OS detection might happen by JS and not
via the HTTP header.
