I think we can reasonably assume RCS is used by Google to attack on both fronts: iMessage in the US and other countries with high iOS penetration, Whatsapp and other cross-platform messenger services in the rest of the world.
But while carriers and Android OEMs might be on board, I don't really see why Apple would bother, short of being forced. Maybe that's part of the strategy.
