While I think the idea has merit, I think people are 'cooling' on AMP because it causes weirdness like the URL being hosted by google (??) and the original URL being hard to share, etc. They have to encourage browsers or publishers to find a way to go back to or share the 'canonical' URL, it doesn't seem to be happening. My understanding at this point is vague though. (A few months ago I played around with making a WordPress plugin that hooks into the AMP plugin and redirects all mobile traffic including from FB, etc. to the AMP page. Didn't finish/release it yet though.)
