If you look at the links I pasted into comment 9, you will see a number of things that are failing. I think there is a legitimate need for a platform directory here because not all of the failures represent bugs. For example, there is no way to test media queries that query device-pixel-ratio without having different expectations for 1x and 2x. There are also a lot of legitimate differences with <canvas> when you are on a  1x versus a 2x device, and the only way to test those is again allowing for different expectations.
