Eh, navigation layout should definitely be different for mobile, and we shouldn't ship the desktop navigation to phone browsers, and I still think it's reasonable to offer phones smaller/more compressed image sizes and stuff by default.
I agree tracking scripts and the like should be blocked and removed across the board. But I think there's probably a suitable amount of visible UI and content that should be shipped differently or less to phones, because of how they're interacted with.
I hear you, but I'd wager the size differences are actually pretty minor. Absolute worst case you have 2X the CSS and HTML but much will be redundant so it will probably compress well with gzip.
