As a user, I hate AMP: it breaks links, it breaks browser behaviour on mobile

This is particularly noticable on iOS- AMP pages break iOS' standard page scrolling ballistics, for some reason. It makes them feel non-native in a particularly egregious way.

However, it was AMP team's conscious decision to implement handling of AMP the way they did: divs with overflow, hiding links etc.

But to be fair, many pages break links and browser behaviour without AMP as well.
