Why would they go with RCS though when Google's proprietary messenger is the only Android client for that standard? Why not something open, like Matrix?

Apple is implementing it because China requires all 5G phones to support RCS to get certified.

Apple did not do this because they suddenly have a change of heart about the green bubbles. Apple did not do this to spite regulatory bodies and ‘malice compliance’ with some interoperability mandate.

This is not a move to make messaging more secure with the green bubbles. This is not a move to make messaging better with the green bubbles. This is a move so they can continue to sell phones in China.
