No need to apologize :-) but you miss a real-world part: we do have some open-platform, even if NOT open hardware desktops, we do not have anything easy to buy at a reasonable price for mobile.

I own a Pine64 phone, it's nice to play as it was the old OpenMoko, but it's not much usable as a daily driver suggestible to generic users, including those who can use GNU/Linux desktop normally as simple users. That's the biggest issue and it's a similar systemic issue described above: we can't have really Free software if it need non-free systems to run, so we can't have free OSes if they demand non-free hw + fw crap.

Since desktops so far are at least manageable I generally suggest to run to save them, pushing desktop computing again and simply say mobile world so far is just a prison. This way perhaps since actually we need desktops to work in 99% of the cases we would been able to have them in the future, as "free" as today...
