I think that anyone who works at Google has an obligation to speak up. The company is on a path to destroy the open WWW. The primary reasons for pushing AMP are clearly not about fast web pages. Open governance isn't going to fix it.
The AMP project should be shut down replaced with an open discussion about how to make the Web less bloated using existing standards. Serving from CDNs in restricted formats should not be a requirement for publishing on the Web. The source of the problem is JavaScript, not HTML.
