It is a response to the claim that "There are plenty of non-AMP both at the top and in the carousel".

News outlets use AMP because they get pushed out of the carousel if they don't. You have the cause/effect backwards.

Looking at my Google News feed, I see articles from The New York Times and NPR listed prominently in the carousel, and yet neither use AMP.

Edit: NYT does use AMP: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2018/09/06/us/p...

It's possible that the article I was looking at was a non-AMP link. At least, it didn't have the lightning bolt symbol next to it.
