friendship affects the "blue numbers" and not the master stats of a card. It also lets you pick which quote shows on the card detail screen. It's not needed for evolution/amalgamation.

A "Perfect Amalgamation" is when all cards have been properly leveled and evolved to get the best possible stats. For UR class and lower, this is generally the only way to get the best stats on cards. For LR class cards, it's often not worth the resources and materials to make a "perfect". In fact for DRV cards, it adds no benefit.
