You are not reading the situation correctly :-)
 
The current field is controlled and tailored as the first comers
negotiated. Google and friends. Now comes a new player, Apple,
reluctantly, and wants to change the existing landscape to their liking.
Well, they will have to negotiate hard to do that. If they can convince
the existing players.
 
Never mind, we will have RCS all around in a few years. It will come.
Just be patient and eat pop corn as they play out :-)

RCS is is implemented and supported by almost all networks for years.
Fact is: Marketshare compared to the real (crossplatform-)messengers
almost nil. The arrival of Apple will not change that materially. Apple
is/will be supporting RCS for strategically different reasons.
