Ditch the AMP framework, keep the cached-signed-page idea

takeaway 2 connections

The key design insight behind SXG: AMP had the right idea (cache a trusted page on Google servers, prefetch from there) but crippled it with a simplified HTML framework, mobile-only delivery and google.com URLs. Allowing the full power of HTML while cryptographically signing the cached page preserves the privacy and control wins and lets the browser display the original URL in the address bar.
