Can you write a carousel without JS? A live blog? Lazy loading images and ads? A stateful e-commerce product page?

Have a look through the list of AMP components, you'll be surprised what's possible. https://www.ampproject.org/docs/reference/components

Good examples, but none of that is anything that I want. I'd much prefer small, simple, static pages to any of that. Additionally, they will load faster, and be easier to read. Those things are just trimming pages down to what Google wants, not users.

As somebody who has implemented AMP for a major newspaper, these are in fact things that publishers want.

We can have all of that and have sub 100ms render times without AMP, we just have to cut out all the bloated javascript and trackers everywhere.

Google loves AMP because they (and only they) get to still track users.
