When you see this topic discussed, invariably iPhone users chime in to say the exact same thing. They like the status symbol and have come to identify with it, even though it results in a worse experience for them. The internet is built on open standards, but Apple has convinced its users that closed services are elite.

My mom had an Android and my Dad has an iPhone. I spent 10x more time helping my Mom and all she did was text and play one game.

iPhone users expect these features through iMessage, but don't realize that the features are missing from green message chats due to Apple's stubbornness to avoid implementing open standards, not due to anything in particular the Android device is doing wrong. I'm not saying RCS is the end-all be-all, but any kind of shared protocol that Apple had worked to develop in good faith would have resulted in a better experience for iPhone users. So it's really disappointing that the only the option they give their users is old school SMS.
