Completely agree
BUT, the problem stated in the article has nothing to do with that behaviour. It refers to the inability to track the user journey correctly due to Google's AMP distribution system. It doesn't matter if you click on an AMP result an go back in 2 seconds, or if you click on an AMP result, read 30 seconds, and click on a link inside the content that takes you to the original website: both cases are considered bounces.
