That doesn't work very well in combination with the fact that we by default
hide the features with no differences -- there is nothing listed under
platforms at all in the default view.

I also think it's kind of weird to link some OSes there but not others. I
think it'd look better with a general list of the available platforms and
then a separate sentence linking to the feature matrix for more details, or
something like that?
