So long as the mobile changes do not make the website LESS friendly.

Some of us have ageing eyesight and dexterity, and mobile-friendly == 
user-unfriendly.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of people prefer mobile, but a lot of people 
AVOID mobile because the medium is just, well, pretty much unusable 
because of its small size.

(And while I doubt this demographic includes many lilypond users, more 
and more of the people I know are going back to dumb phones because 
smartphones are "too complicated".)
