  First of all, as I said, I was kidding, so easy does it.

  Secondly, don't read between the lines and don't put words in my mouth
("you think", "want to restrict").
  
  FWIW, I've been working in the computer industry since the late 60s
and I did not encounter the term 'app' before mobile devices. I think
it was probably mostly an Apple-thing. nospam says that it's not (an
Apple-thing), but as usual he doesn't back up his claims.

  Current standing: Two versus two.

  (AFAIC,) EOD (of this issue).
