Ask HN: Why does HN require tiny baby fingers to operate on a phone?

A full 3rd or more of the time when i try to tap on the "new" link at the top of HN, i accidentally tap the "jobs" link with my average-sized fingers because my phone wraps HN such that "jobs" is directly below "new", with like 3 pixels of gap between them.

Similarly, the links across each post in the list, along with the near-microscopic "up" arrow, require teeny tiny baby fingers to tap reliably.

Certainly no tiny babies are using HN, so... please, HN, fontSize+=2 for the links! :-D
