I shall concur by asking [admittedly about 'amidah, not birkot QS), who skips 
unessaneh tauqef on account of the fact that it, too, is a piyut, and thus 
could be a hefseq?

FYI, the reason we say UT has little to do with a certain Rav Amnon who may or 
may not have lived in Mainz and may or may not have had the slightest 
connection with the author of that piyut. The reason is that UT is peti'hah 
liqdushah on RH. Some, but not all Ashkenazi communities also use it on YK 
(but many Yekkes, us included, have a different peti'hah on YK).
