I mean, RCS as a technology is fine. Just needs Google and Apple out of the mix. If it wants to replace SMS, it needs to be a carrier-run system.
It still requires lock-in to a device. That's utterly antithetical to network design concepts established in the 80's.
It violates the OSI model of layer independence.
I agree, but so does SMS/MMS. I'm only comparing apples to apples as far as the default messaging experience on the device is concerned.
