I guess several of our WAP problem sites are legacy, old and not much
visited. Some of them are maintained and may be popular, but have an
unfortunate UA sniffing pattern and think mobile non-Android non-iOS
browsers are WAP browsers - if any of them are popular enough to care
about, we can handle them with the existing UA spoofing mechanism. So I
think implementing some automatic UA switching magic isn't worth the time.
