Legally signing /M is only legal if you are in England or one of the
countries that uses the M prefix. It is readily accepted as Mobile but
is not a legal designator. I am not sure that most of the ones you
listed are legal IARU or ITU call designators. This could vary from
country to country.
Sending /qrp just takes up more time and adds more difficulty when
signals are very very weak.
I also agree that those making contacts with QRP stations should be
getting the bonuses for doing most of the work not the other way around.
