Yeah. I don’t really think it’s better either. I just think it’ll fall flat on its face like Google’s many many previous attempts at messaging unless they actually tell people it exists.
Google’s RCS has 800M active users and it’s projected to hit 1B by the end of the year matching iMessage’s usage. Whether people actually know that it’s RCS or not, it’s been a pretty successful service for Google so far.
I don’t know how much better going to another closed system is. AFAIK it’s only Google running these servers and only their implementation.

I use RCS with all of my Android user friends. It’s always been turned on by default for us.
Not sure what you mean not many Android users are using it?
Meanwhile, Google Voice doesn’t even have it enabled!
T-Mobile and Samsung have their own implementations (which are compatible with Google’s)
