I am on mobile network and it fails to consider this as a factor that other people who might receive this IP could be having a proxy.

If the IP address you're using has been detected as a residential proxy, it doesn't matter. It's going to be flagged on lists for a long time.

Being able to check is helpful.

Yeah, clicked from my mobile network without thinking and nearly jumped out my skin.

But whether your IP address is being used as a residential proxy is already important information. It answers the question (is this IP address low quality?)

Although I'll grant that it would be interesting to know if your devices are running the proxy, but you'll need an exeuctable tool for that, not a per-ip network tool.
