Why would anyone want to sms? Modern texting is much nicer experience.
Their problem is that iMessage falls back to that instead of them adopting RCS, and treats MMS in particular way worse (terrible image quality, etc)
They could still keep iMessage, but just automatically fall back to RCS instead of SMS/MMS. God forbid!
None of my android friends use RCS
I don’t want to sms, but also a lot of my friends aren’t techies, not to mention my family. Convincing them all to download and use the same messaging app is just not going to happen.
