AMP pages are designed explicitly to benefit Google over the site in question. They rob the ability to use design to make a site stickier (which would of course make the bounce rate high for AMP pages).

I also in general find AMP pages to be a bit of a UX nightmare.

Outside of raw speed, I have nothing good to say about AMP pages, and the speed is nowhere near good enough to justify using them. They make the Web a worse place for the sole benefit of Google. They are abusing their monopoly position in search by forcing AMP pages down people's throats.
