Unfortunately, it's easier to get half a dozen entities to agree on something which is aligned with their incentives (a small UI change to make email more usable) than to get literally billions of users and systems to switch to a completely new technology which offers at best an incremental improvement over email.

(Which, altho it solves the phishing issue, has created new productivity problems.) TMTP doesn't have to replace SMTP overnight to be successful. I'll leave it at that; thanks for the discussion!
