If Chrome were throwing a bunch of new tags into HTML that turned common JS framework idioms into tags, I would be 100% on board with that.

But AMP seems to be about subverting and reinventing HTML to make it more profitable, and only tangential at best to needs of developers.

That's what I mean by "bizarro HTML". It's not extending the evolutionary tree of HTML, it's branching off of it permanently.

They added subsetting to fix a lot of HTML's design mistakes. Hard to fault them for that.

I like a lot of the optimizations and ideas that are going on.. but am sad when they're made in ways proprietary to 1-3 browser vendors.

Mozilla is worth praise here: web assembly, and after a slog, shared buffers. Your ServiceWorker initiative is a rare exception from Chrome.

We forced the issue on DOM prototype linearization, built-in sub-classing, etc. to ensure that all the bits *actually* lined up & layered

Not to speak ill, but the story for layering and WASM is actually still entirely TBD. FFI is unsolved, as is self-hosting JS.

Not to say it can't happen, but we should be clear-eyed about what's a bolt-on and what's well-layered.
