Speaking only, solely, and specifically as a user... why do I care if the content is in an integrity-checked hosted cache or if the site owner has analytics? Neither is important to the experience of accessing the content.

The problem with simple, fast-loading, no-hijacking web documents is that history shows quite clearly that they don't stay that way for long. Every single website owner could adopt that standard today. Every single website owner has had that same chance every day for the past two decades. We're still not there.

Speaking solely as as a user, because I don’t want to use Google’s fucking cache just to read a damn web page. And the scrolling sucks.

And why the fuck is it so hard to just get the canonical URL for the page? Seriously, if google had been just a little less aggressive about preventing users from leaving their little AMP ecosystem, it might have taken off.

They wouldn't be adopting AMP either except Google put their market weight behind it and said you should adopt AMP if you don't want to be punished in search results.

Users don't always know what's good for them.
