There are numerous issues with converting the checkboxes to toggles on mobile (see sub-tasks). I wonder if this more complexity that it is work. Users are certainly familiar with using checkboxes on mobile devices, and they are already designed to be touch-accessible (e.g. large enough).

Also the toggle is much wider than the checkbox, leaving less room on narrow devices for long labels:

@Esanders thank you for doing the labor of creating this tracking task. The fact that the work was there for you to do tells me that I'm not using phabricator as effectively as I could.

I think creating parent tasks only when they become necessary is a perfectly acceptable way of doing things! In this case if we decide to drop the toggles I thought it would be helpful to see which tasks would become invalid.
