If you are on an iPhone you can add a website to the Home Screen and it functions as a dedicated app essentially and the opened instance is treated separately from safari

Uhm, I am saying that I do not want a 100 apps (website-based or native) on my phone because this is hard to manage without better human-computer interfaces like a big screen and physical keyboard.

So I am not sure how making a web page into an app actually helps me?

When they are a web page I frequent, typing a few letters in the browser URL bar gives me the URL to click on and get there.

It is the same on Android.
