Some L&Fs are only permitted to be used an certain platforms for legal
reasons.  This is pretty easy to defeat.

I think L&Fs are considered part of the platform customisation, not
necessarily intended to be WORA. 

An L&F legitimately might morph somewhat to each platform to blend in
better.

I think what you have run into is a side effect of this thinking.  

What will have to do is think about each platform separately, and just
thank your lucky stars that some of the code is common to all.

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
