@RHo thanks for filing this. it's not just the suggested edits module; all the modules that we display using the subpath rendering will look off. There's a task in T264992: Remove mobile-details mode from Special:Homepage about removing that display option entirely, but it would be nice to verify via instrumentation data that it is unused or lightly used. It would be nice to get rid of it, because it's another code path that we mostly don't pay attention to.

@RHo declining this as we are removing the legacy mobile details mode entirely (T264992: Remove mobile-details mode from Special:Homepage).
