And like Amiibos, support across games is almost always "you get a small non-unique bonus" because implementing specific content for each amiibo is time consuming. So you end up with a complex matrix of which games actually have real support for which amiibos, and realize they aren't as interoperable as they are advertised.

Absolutely. I have a few Amiibos which I've gotten as gifts, I keep them as little figurines on my desk and every now and then I'll realize they are more than that and when I get a new game I like to check whether it has Amiibo support. I like them and they bring a little bit of joy when I look at them and I like the unexpected fun of having some Breath of the Wild equipment in Skyrim or a Link styled Yoshi.
