I'm a solo dev for a startup and this is something I always hammer home to my non-technical co-founder. I tell him that spinning up an app that would have parity with our current app will not only take close to a year for a single person to develop, but from there on out every feature will come out slower since we need to have mobile parity as well. Out current plan is to slowly make all the pages on our website mobile friendly and even that is a big lift for a complex business app

He is just trying to piggyback an another distribution channel to get more visibility and another place to be found. It has nothing to do with UX.
