> An interesting thing that happened at our company when we ended up having a platform team was that the "Can do" attitude of our previously homogenous group of mobile devs stopped over night - "That's a platform role" became a common refrain.

This has more or less been the case for my entire tenure at my current company. Sure, I want to do X, but we're crunched for time almost always. And there's another team that probably handles X. So it would be irresponsible/wrong of me to work on X when someone else can handle it faster and "owns" it. Except, who owns it? Whose team do I contact? That, I never know. It's a shifting, amorphous creature that lives around the app development team; I am required to communicate with it but I don't know how. Ultimately I end up with many micro-blockers where I don't know if a given task is something I should be learning myself or passing off to someone else.
