Well, from a user perspective you might enjoy having an app on every platform. So no need to wait until the developer rebuilds some app on a new platform. No need to bother the dev to port his app to Mac/Linux/BSD/(other non-mainstream OS).

In my opinion, the single most reason not to use a PWA from a user perspective is the performance. But I still use my Samsung S3 and when I look at the current flagship smartphones... They have more RAM and CPU cores than many laptops nowadays.

So I think the performance issue is going to be much less relevant. Others might say that usability is an issue too, but with the upcoming component libraries, that is going away too. After all, projects like framework7 [1] support quite good components already.
