Mods: please make this the canonical link; AMP links force mobile layouts which are suboptimal on desktop.

AMP links break apps on mobile too, the Guardian app tries to open guardian.com links, but AMP breaks that.

Mind you, stories load faster via AMP than the app, but still.

Incidentally, I wondered whether the Guardian has blocked the site or did something stupid, since the page took so long to load. I thought AMP stands for ACCELERATED?

Edit: Actually, repeated loads take exactly as long (seven full seconds); but the scrollbar already has the correct page size. Probably some buggy scripting.
