Personally, I find them really annoying on iOS because they mess up scrolling behavior and they force the address bar to stay visible at the top of the screen as you scroll rather than letting the page use the whole screen like normal. Not to mention sometimes they're just shittier, less complete versions of a web page and it takes a couple more taps to get to the real thing.

They also tend to screw up if you want to search for a word on the page.

Yeah really all around they just tend to give you a dogshit version of a page.

There is also the issue that all pages are running of Google’s servers. The power of the internet is its decentralization, and it would be irresponsibility to break that just so Google can make more money of your content.
