Choose the right statement about AMP:

The correct statement is that using AMP is the only way to get into the Top Stories carousel on Google Search. While Google has expanded eligibility for the carousel beyond AMP, for many years and in specific contexts, AMP was the exclusive path. Let's look at why the other options are incorrect: AMP implementation often requires rewriting HTML and inlining CSS, making it more complex than simply adding a plugin. A regular website can be optimized to be as fast, or even faster, than an AMP version through proper web development practices. AMP provides a framework for speed, but it's not inherently superior to a well-optimized regular site. CSS files in AMP are indeed inlined and subject to size limits to ensure non-blocking rendering, which is a core part of its performance strategy. While Page Experience scores (including Core Web Vitals) became crucial in 2021, AMP is a technology that directly contributes to good Page Experience, so it's not a matter of one being "more important" than the other; they are related.
