In 2012, Mozilla developers explained why they chose not to include "Android" in their mobile UA string. <https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/User_Agent> Summary: Sites that mistakenly serve desktop-formatted pages are less likely to result in support calls, and are easier to address with evangelism, than sites that reasonably promote Android apps to a browser that claims to be running on Android. And that evangelizing sites to "Send your mobile version to any browser with 'Mobi' in its UA string" helps not just Firefox but every other mobile browser (for example, Ubuntu's).
