Lets say I'm searching for a house.

If I go to redfin.com on my phone vs the native redfin app, there is a distinct difference in UX. The native app by far surpasses the mobile app in terms of performance and usability.

Now this is one example but can be said for many sites whose functionality isn't just to display static content.

I feel like people are ignoring my fundamental point -

There are things the web can do that native currently sucks at. Sometimes those things are really important to me.

I'm not saying web is always better than native. Far from it. But I am saying web is sometimes way better than native. Even on mobile.
