Agreed. The company I work for is doing AMP and are getting real business value from it.
As such money does speak louder and if the users of our product are engaging with it more because of AMP, why would we go against it?
Philosophical reasons aren't enough. To give people and companies a reason to oppose AMP you'd need to frame the reasons in a way that includes business considerations.
