Especially given that we'd need to support them on both iOS and Android.\r\n\r\nThis would add an intense level of complexity to our applications, making them far more bloated and expensive to maintain, while also distracting us from keeping the platform as a whole stable and in good shape.\r\n\r\nIt's best to hold off on adding any more complexity to our mobile apps until it is something we can afford and commit to maintain over the long run. With SN, it's best not to have a feature then have it and cause issues and stress for everyone involved.\r\n\r\nThis might not be the answer you were looking for, but it's important to note that there is a whole \"economics of software\" involved here, namely that nothing is free, and costs rise exponentially with  feature set. We'd rather be thrift and survive longer, than take on risks and projects that can jeopardize long-term stability and survivability.
