People who aren’t using SMS now (Europe) will continue to not use RCS either.

We're all already on RCS in Europe. And you know what? Nobody cares. Or truly knows. Nobody opens their Messages, iMessage, whateveritbemessage.

I didn't know we were on RCS which proves the point I guess. I do open my texts though.

Maybe for 2FA. But for messaging with friends and colleagues? Everyone uses Signal, Whatsapp or telegram.

We aren't on RCS. The only SMS app that even uses Google's RCS is Google's Messages. Assuming you had that app preinstalled (which isn't necessarily true for all manufacturers or all models), it comes off by default and you have to enable it (it's called "chat features").
