GNOME (capitals please, same for MATE) is focused on desktop and laptop computers, including laptops with touchscreens. GNOME has to support touchscreens well because Windows has gone that route, and 90% of laptops ship with Windows. Tablets are a secondary concern because very, very few people are running GNOME on tablets. They're basically touchscreen laptops without keyboards, though, so I don't think they're much of a stretch. Typically I associate the word mobile with phones, and nobody runs GNOME on phones. A new startup, Endless Mobile, is trying to. I wish them well, but I've yet to see reason to believe that will work well. (Which is fine, since they're new.) Anyway, it sounds like you're spot-on part of the target audience for GNOME Classic. I'm sure the developers would be interested in feedback on why that environment doesn't currently meet your needs, and how it might be improved to do so.
