Also Apple Pay inside apps, and for retailers.

That's not the point. Inside their walled garden, Amazon's and Google's payment works fine too.

The point was it used to be easy to use their services outside in the open internet on normal websites like Paypal.

A very big Walled Garden. As an owner of an ecommerce site, I can tell you it's very tempting to create an App version just to take advantage of one-tap thumbprint orders.

Also I don't think Amazon or Google have a TouchID payment system.
