AMP is symmetric in the same way PB is.

I like AMP's explicit schemas because they make maintenance and 
documentation easier.

And I am 98% certain more people are using AMP to interoperate with non- 
Twisted software than are using PB to interoperate with non-Twisted 
software. ;)

Basically, I think PB tries to do too much and does it on a slightly 
shaky foundation.  It is totally possible to build stuff using PB that 
works but in my experience it is a bit easier to do so with AMP and I am 
more comfortable with prospects for making AMP cooler in the future due 
to the simplicity of its implementation compared to the implementation 
of PB (that said, here we are *years* later and I am still waiting for 
good AMP support for streaming data - so it's not all roses over here).
