Blockchain.info is the only remaining web wallet listed twice on the Choose your wallet page.
One of the reasons for this is that users have full offline control over their private keys, and the app can fallback into a P2P mode similarly to Bitcoin Wallet for Android. Blockchain.info was also previously the only app available for iOS, but this has changed since then.
This said, displaying duplicate wallets is still a source of confusion for the visitor, and even though there's good reason to accept this particular duplicate, this is an open door for duplicating all other web wallets, which is a non-starter. Additionally, this change has been suggested many times in the past.
Accordingly, I suggest we don't duplicate web wallets listing, since the description for web wallets clearly mentions that all web wallets are usually compatible both for mobiles and desktop.
