I had real problems quoting a post earlier on mobile because the quote button and iOS text selection handle overlapped, tapping `Quote` instead resulted in the selection being cleared.
A literal edge case?

Surely you could quote a bit more or less to adjust?

Sure, in the end I just hit the edge of the quote button and it worked.
I reported it because the user doesn’t get any feedback as to what or why it’s happening. There’s no obvious feedback that the two tap targets are colliding. Moving the quote button down half a row would solve it.
I’m not sure unspoken workarounds are going to help on the accessibility front either.

I have some good, yet belated news! @pmusaraj just fixed this!
