I think stef's rules are really quite good as rules of thumb. I don't think
putting "Windows or MacOS" rule there would improve them in any way.
At the same time I find that the "runs on smartphones" rule actually does
improve them, simply because "runs on smartphone" is a buzzword. It's oft-used
today as a marketing ploy, and when I see it my "snakeoil sense" is actually
tingling.
I don't get that tingling sensation with "runs on Windows and MacOS" usually,
because that's usually just a statement of fact, not a marketing bulletpoint
that can be used as a leverage with masses today.
