I'm not quite so quick to dismiss this out of hand, despite my own (negative) experiences with AMP.

Google is certainly capable of making mistakes, but I find it hard to believe they would invest so much into AMP without strong metrics to indicate that AMP pages load faster overall. And on a theoretical level, the explanations of why AMP should be faster also make sense.

Note the phrasing, that's an important part of what I'm referring to: they're talking about the icon instead of the speed directly.
