On: Google AMP – A 70% drop in our conversion rate

Or slow sites could just die on their own? Is there really a need to try to force the issue? Can't users just get tired of waiting and start going to sites that don't make them wait?

Honest question

I hate needlessly heavy sites. I just avoid them. I'm also it a fan of AMP. I especially hate the URL is wrong and trying to share the correct URL is tedious

How many times have people tried to get sites to be lighter and failed? There is no evidence that we'd just end up with small sites naturally.

How is a user supposed to know which sites are slow in a search results lists? Mental list of bad domains to not go to?

Search engine puts a page speed icon in the result, or uses speed in ranking. Not tagging only sites that use the engine's own code.
