Perhaps it's me but I like to be able to edit articles and see discussions, and I haven't figured out how to do that from the mobile version.

So I find myself constantly fighting the website to access the Desktop version

I also like the section menus for pages that the mobile version dispenses with (which is annoying when you want to share a specific section with someone, all the more important as finding text on a page for the minimised sections that mobile uses is v. awkward). Plus it hides other content at the end of articles (eg primarily the categories section but also other boxes/details too)

The version you get served when using an m. URL but forcing the mobile browser to view Desktop pages is something of a compromise - it has a sharper design than the proper desktop mode but it still lacks the categories.
